  • “Candle Light Prayer” – Poetry

    I come before You humbly As the candle flickers low With all my imperfections In this land of frozen snow.   Insanity arising As we play the ageless war – I come before You humbly As the ancients did before.   You Whose heart is endless, You of stained glass crystal mind Who pens the…

    “Judgment” – Poetry

    You are the Lover, the sweetness of Life The Star that shines forever Your temple sits in ruins, Your priestess abandons You You Whose wings have sheltered us and helped us take flight You blocked the poison arrows Our enemies turned to dust Because of You, there was music and laughter A fire to warm…

    “Boundless Void”

    If Heaven’s greatest love to offer Proved a fateful chance You’d turn away Without delay To seek the Great Romance. And if you saw a house of sadness Made of skin and bone From warmth you’d flee To set them free And face the world alone. To sit and think in silence And, as no…

  • “Those Who Watch (and Those Who Don’t)” – Poetry

    Fleeting shadows, wisps of darkness Arrested breath Illusion?   Flashing beacons, wings so bright Racing mind Confusion.   Scarlet portals, sinister gaze Rising fear Delusion?   Light is darkness, darkness – light?

  • “Sentry” – Poetry

    A beautiful angel encased in ice Sentry for a thousand years Mask of reality cloaked in shadow Graceful form thrown into sharp relief Standing on the precipice Of the mouth of hell Gazing with deceptive blindness Into endless horror Bones made of ice and stone Skin made of thorns and nails Hands formed from judgment…

    “Reunion” – Poetry

    A quest for recollection Search through infinity How long I have known you In sweet felicity! Lost to the land of memory – Where are you? Where? Rising up from the ashes In the depths of despair. I have glimpsed my heaven Through the static and tide – Two halves are united. Bridge infinity wide!…
