Crossed Paths

 

Crossed Paths

            An Open Rift

            Shattered among all

            Forcibly in perkiness

            A stone

 

            Frozen and warm

            Exemplary in heart

            Reclusive from the shadows

            Clawing, gnawing, for air

 

            Struck by thunderbolts

            Rolling over the precluded endings

            Reaping success through failure

            Even when defeated

 

            A past

            Full, overloaded, yet Aesthetic

            We clashed

            Fell, ground on ground

 

            Mind to mind

            Friends, brothers

            We became

            Ongoing, bracing stale air

 

            Racing down lines

            Mobs of colors surround you

            Driven to finish

            Beat by the sun

 

            Nausea swallows you

            Weakness pollutes you consciousness

            Until I come by, waving goodbye

            So it began, our race with sacrifice

 

            Crossed Paths
