[bodytext] => The layers of time well up around me Their colors Their sound This is the world reversed Darker worlds swallowed by this curse The binding darkness came to my eyes As the color was drained from the skies For a moment there was a reprieve Just long enough so that I may breathe Written upon a black monolith A massive pillar that rose like a tomb Words spoken from within the stone "The stars some day shall tear themselves from the sky and the earth then, shall die. All souls lost in the chasm of the sky will rise above the earth and cry forgotten wisdom Once heard then gone by. When planets align and the time is right so shall the winds of change arise and spilling forth from their breasts the flow of life shall arrest." So blackened was the sky that the vacuum of space did crumble Into the heavens cascaded all the stars and open wide did the earth Inversely proportioned the 65 towers did wait Silent and deadly Cold with the knowledge of all time passed The fate of life, a single die cast A procession of souls marched it’s outer rim A beacon amongst the halo of lights Silent and mournful, urging me closer To the center of the infinite void For the grandeur of time gone by The souls of the all knowing dead Glowing shades I did behold Of the treasures of the nether life Encased in radiant silver That glowed golden in the dark Never did I see The phantoms that be Laid forever silent alone [comments] => 1 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Maxximus [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
