Unapologetic
20 April 2014
What hast thou done
With the earthen will
Bestowed upon thee?
On queried the Master
As I stood too stricken
For a voice to emerge
…
I handed in my slate
It was full to the brim
Of wasted memories
Of a cherished time
When snow fell softly
On the inky rooftops
…
All that I had dreamt
Once, so long ago
A land of icy dreams
Like a barren soil
Thought till nausea
Trodden on sullenly
…
I lifted high my glass
In celebration of mist
The blank emptiness
Engulfed me silently
Droplets eerily eating
Into the core of sound
…
Yet on they plodded
Dreams from the grey
Of nothingness born
Inked out by the frenzy
Of an old shadow of me
Whirling from the void
…
I dreamt, I said, it seems
These ethereal dreams
Thus recovering stance
I glanced back this time
Eye to eye, brows high,
Standing, unapologetic
