Lifepoems
|
thousands of needles struggle desperately
to pierce the dry breath of a whisper
that is my fragile thirsty soul
vengefully they strike from the shadows
attempting to inject me
and infect me with their deadly poison
they know all my soft spots
all my weak points
relentlessly they ravage them
over and over
ravenously waiting for the barriers to evaporate
the tiniest prick of their dripping fangs
causes unfathomable pain and suffering
if left unchecked and uncured
will force me to relive the last few moments of this gruesome death
for all of eternity
for so long i have tried to fight these needles
alone
but they never fail
to overwhelm me
and consume me
my only guard
my only cure
is this crystal pool of the purest water
Living Water
dripping down the trunk of an overlooking tree
where lies nailed and hanging limp
a little Lamb
breathing deep
i fill my lungs with this sweet nectar
i let it envelop my soul
like a warm blanket
on an icy winter day
once just a dry breath
now a glistening diamond
reflecting the soothing Light
brighter than the brightest star
at its center
where the Water runs still
