Release me once
Catch me twice
Third time's a charm
I won't play nice
#Darktale
@MercurialNight
Stepping back
from the insistent hubbub
I've donned dark feathers
I contemplate the night
... a quiet few days
@Banquozghost
Cloaked in somber garb
Melting with the shadows
A time for contemplation
Conjugation of the prose
@MercurialNight
The weight of just a comma
too much
for words, unmeasured
to bear
They disperse
unbound
no compass
for the formless dark
@Banquozghost
Quills dipped in misers ink
To eke out each precious word
Souls poured forth upon the page
Spilling to fill the universe
@MercurialNight
I cut my arm
wrote in blood
The rebel page
sucked my pen dry
leaving just a smear
that seemed indifferent
to the wound
@Banquozghost
From life's blood
In fountains
Flows the heartfelt truth
❣
@MercurialNight
At the bottom
of the heart's disturb'd sea
private tides
wear smooth each jagged edge
A pebble for your thoughts
