the funeral pyre

Posted by Robert Anderson On Wednesday, November 23, 2011 0 comments

from where i'll flame i'll be reborn to bear for only you
and thus you will remain to me as all i ever knew
while every ounce of all the depth here in my eyes will die
to reawaken my own soul through all the tears i cry
i'll firstly weaken for your love then gaze to heaven, see
'til all i know of every breath of life you gave to me
corrodes to ash until i nevermore may know again
the way a dream as beautiful can bare a heart in vain
and as eventuality will beckon for me, dear
you'll be the one for whom i'll rise my spirits from my fear
then live again -- oh, as bathetically as it may seem
far more intense to follow through the sweetest words i teem
through all the thoughts i bleed as every reason i adore
for all the ways you sense my deepest passions always pour

A Mind's Exorcism

Photobucket 
For once, I do wish in sleepiness lost
Within seldom embrace of such content
Not ever to see, nor feel what had sought
Through what I do so awfully admit

As droplets of me do fail in the depth
And restlessness overcomes all my time
It seems I’m consumed by all I had kept
For always behind the doors of my mind

And away throughout the hours I’ve known
By day after night and always within
‘Tis as these words do reflect me alone
With so many things I’ve yet to undim

Unwinding my thoughts, foreseeing my way
 As life does enter what I’ve yet to say
