Promise of the Fall

Promise of the Fall

All is spent

Efforts and prayers

The Dragon

Uncovers

Scales and gills under layers

Mistaken for flesh

 

Blue genies

Sing of oncoming

Nocturnal

Silent flights

When we will roam into nights

Deeper than cyan

 

Man lion

Keeper of the sun

We are one

Under oath

What seeps in one seeps in both

The blazing branches

 

Dining smoke

Ribs a black anthem

He inhales

I exhale

Withered lungs flailing ribcage

Burning in the rage

 

The regrets

They serve no purpose

The chest dark

The heart white

Intervals give me respite

Between mighty breaths

 

In due time

My rhyme will explain

The meanings

Of the pain

When the dewdrops will recall

Promise of the Fall
