"An unpleasant, and often strong, emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger, accompanied by increased autonomic activity..."
Stormy skies, dusty streets,
That's the way the critter creeps;
Through the cracks, under the door,
By the route we all deplore.
Shattered glass, scattered nails,
Even over those it sails;
Around the rocks, between the shards,
None of that succeeds to guard.
Silenced lights, padlocked gates,
Just beyond all those it waits;
Above the wall, over the fence,
Right past these it travels hence.
Shouted cries, lonely tears,
Both of these it longs to hear;
Beneath the bed, within the heart,
Wherever-in there once was dark.
Scarlet hands, hallowed minds,
Against the will it holds and binds;
Inside the want, behind the act,
Blood made ink upon this pact.
Skylight dreams, sundry thoughts,
Deceit leads on to all the faults;
Into the wish, upon the star,
It makes a cut that grows a scar.
Soulless eyes, fallen hopes,
Fiction held but tattered ropes;
From the start, to the end,
Keys it holds to seed a mend.

Boundless

"Departure from that which is known, assured waking into somnolence, to be forever bound by silence..."
Across the floor, quickly spread,
In the mirror reflection red;
Time the captive, given away,
Lost is sight to one more day;
From the hand, swiftly begun,
In the wake decision done;
God the part, actor made,
Mind in will of gun and blade;
Behind the act, blindly raised,
In the moment vision glazed;
Hate the fuel, desire grown,
Rage a touch on all let known;
Within the chance, sadly missed,
In the hope worthless bliss;
Fate the dice, destiny cast,
Dread in heart of he found last;
Before the start, quietly waited,
In the journey path gated;
Life the old, sight anew,
Gold if faith shows love they knew.
