Words like lightning pierce the sky as
Cold breath’s emotions drench my heart.
The fear to claim my love; my soul
Draws clearly upon this earth, body bound.
Souls fly only in the dreams of the makers
Of steel, their fine edges sharpened
To infinite perfection, and for that split second
Joining matter with the air, separating the spirit
From the body, kissing the bleeding red roses
As they fall down to earth. Oh! Angels wielding
The daggers of Truth, smite down the chilling
Voice that cursed my heart, striking me boldly
In that place that knits the soul with my body.
Tearing at my flesh, wounding my spirit,
That blade did find its mark in me,
And for that I lay dying, slipping softly from
The boundaries of earth.
