  1. #MastoPrompt #perilous

    Deep beyond

    Perilous pit in the ground so deep,
    The journey to the bottom steep
    Where lies a gateway.
    Through the clouds of dark and gray.
    Of its doors I wish to peep.

    I wonder what lives beyond the fog below?
    To the light, its face, will it ever show?
    Perhaps beyond naught grow or thrive,
    If I pass through where should I arrive.
    Oh I wish to know what it is that lies below.

  6. I don’t remember what it’s like to be held.
    Do you think it’s possible to forget completely?

    Maybe someone could lend me a hand to hold
    Because it’s just not the same when it’s my own.

    I may never wake up from this eternal nightmare.
    In the dark, all alone, and no one to call.

  7. Reflected colours of the heart
    in water fast flowing:
    a piece of a pause
    in the torrent.
    Fallflowers of Autumn
    flash in the margins of living
    and in silt.
