eternal rain // save me drowning in the stars - - -




A Gift Hence Unopened

One hour alone

mine to be

sacred light eternity


Golden feathers

silver sighs

trust in fragile lullabies


Twilight a memory

dawn yet a hope

blind in all but faith we groped


At spiral staircase

arms maternal

dark surrendered stars eternal


The moment fleets

I see your eyes

mirrored light in all the skies


Velvet green

this flower's bed

dreams and petals autumn red


A breath of mist

one lily's night

we coalesce in songs of starlight


My heart a thread

of pale-rose beads

offered up to all the light I need


Sun-kissed forest

nights gentle rains —

I am in your arms again —


Sacred whispers

free my tears

diamond floats the silver sphere


Sacred whispers

free our dreams

all is one in rainbowed streams


Beyond the tides

time awakens

shattered ocean glass forsaken


One hour alone

mine to be

gifted immortality


A silver key

in love requited —

seraphim souls reunited —


...and so my angel

gave to me —

the gift of


Faith...
