Confusion covered like a dark veil on that fateful night

When no one knew the truth,

when actions felt weaker than words set aflight.

Only innocent gestures of wary hearts grew close.

The child within a playful state,

charmed the very essence of that music evoked.

A whole note that rang across the hallway of shroud unveiled.

Its deafening shout of emotions,

cleared the night with the scent of our substance portrayed.

The steady sound of pouring rain,

shows no melody, just pain.

From an already drowned disaster,

overflowing a heart of fever.

How could one rest with no hope?

This search for dry land often spoke,

of days filled with thoughts of you,

in this island of lost, island so blue.

Yet the rain kept falling,

with no fool intention, no hefty warning.

A freedom from the sky filled tears,

joining the woe of land of spoiled years.

Cool air spoke ever softly,

that your words would come to embrace me.

A touch of a few gentle notes,

hidden from the noise that this rain emotes.

Shock,

fell upon my face unwrapping,

a tremolous and distant ache.

Agony,

lured my tears from the efforts

that shook a lifeless state.

Miracles,

once created a source of hope,

hanging by a thread of melody.

Prayers,

embraced the coming of an unforeseen,

yet subtle lonely tragedy.

These pictures taunt and linger,

in the spirit of the cold whispers..

The hikers on a steep climb,

ignored the slippery and rugged path.

Waist level grass that sloped unkind,

perspiration in a humid bath.

The enthusiasm filled trek,

with adventurous young spirits.

words choked in gulp-full of breaths,

over terrain of rock-hindered limits.

An arduous journey of unmindful thirst,

their eyes replete with indulgence.

This weekend dream of fantasy burst,

viewed from a traveler’s conscience.
