deatchscape

come,
join the dance
to the beat
of the pouring rain,
and admire the moon
as the sun departs.

don't think
you're hallucinating
with the view
you're about
to see.

because between
sleep and awakening,
i bring to you
something
beyond heaven
could ever yield.

forget about
loving,
abandon breathing,
give up
on dreaming
come
and take a rest.

a lullaby
will be sang
for the weary lark
so that in its ascent
bliss
will come
to nest.

seeds of hope,
wasted yesterday
will be sowed
in the dry lands
of the heart and soul.

despite this night,
a new morning light
will begin to ignite,
for in darkness,
fireflies
can also be seen.
