Embers Cast by Torchlight.

I like imagery..

Embers Cast by Torchlight

I own the night,
the veil of black over your eyes,
the grain of sand in your tears...
a dream of horror.

In the fields of twilight,
you are stalked
by feelings contemptible,
overflowed by prejudice and sin.

Like the stars that fall from the sky,
you disperse into ambiguity,
a wish cast upon faltered hope-
that was to never be born true.

Under a bloodied moon,
you shred your faith,
in a tortured sanctimony
of blasphemous sacrilege.

And with the encroaching dust,
antiquity blows your ashes away-
whispers of yester-years on the wind.
And no rain falls for your fate.l
