Blood red like a fingered thorn
Where fires burn in pregnant lies
So turning to enchanted cries

Writing in this riddled form
These words on page my gift reforms
This rancour drives me to traverse
To open up and free my curse

Beyond twilight i see my dreams
Through the skies and all the screams
Reality becomes my place to hide
Its where my heart just drops, subsides

Trapped inside this mirrored prism
My soul is shattered into schisms
So ill leave you now with gentle verse
From this gift inside my curse

Amongst the clouds the heavens sail
Where Angels sing a holy grail
I see them sit, they move and fiddle

Nice.

I must admit to fearing the 'riddle' rhyme - the only other pure alternative to the one you've chosen is 'middle'. Its not exactly the best of matching words.

Well done, Luke.
