DARK SHINES


(Illustration by Nadia Volódina: http://esteldreaming.wordpress.com/ )



I dreamed fields of scented saffron
You and I would run feckless and free
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to an endless churning molten sea


Days I would wait outside the schoolgate
Hoping to attract your undivided attention
Hopeless internal incantation of belief
Crushed under popularity of indifference


I wasn’t buying your soul
I was giving you one
In that dark hollow space
That you call ‘’The Truth’’
Turn off my life support system
Tune out off my frequency
Leave me to flatline alone
I am radio dead to the World

We would sky-visit such spaced places
Be renewed and reborn for all eternity
Dark shines you burned up my energy
Brilliant, brightest twin-star we burned high
Another delicious dripping dream crucified
Sacrificed on the scarlet altar of hope
Broken like a brazen battered butterfly
Upon the burning iron spiked Wheel of Life


 So turn your deaf ear to me
Blot out the reality
Turn your blind eye to me
Block out our fantasy
Turn off my life support system
Tune out off my frequency
Leave me to flatline alone
I am radio dead to the World
