Death of a mercenary โ” author unknown
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Quick enough - not I Nor bold enough nor agile Tangled up in wires Like a nest of vipers vile
Was it I who fell? Or was it done to me? Dissolving, disappearing, with you I wished to be
Tumblr media
Now tethered, clamoring, the restless swarm Beating in my ears a pale rage - No!
Tumblr media
Into the earth I seep, my life the sweet Thorn sticks in my throat
A chill burns brighter - On To the end? What a thought A huddled husk I tumble for the dawn
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The old certainty of youth is felled And from its gnarled trunk Memories fall forth
Hours of ours sharp and pressing race Embittered in a powerlocked embrace
Tumblr media
With you I wished to be and so I go! Down a road without end through woods half-dreamt
Tumblr media
And the chill-bleached delirium of desire Flies into trepid trembling sand
Through the fog of your shadow sharpening The storm tangles in me once again
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To sway with you like sweet grasses dry
Tumblr media
Still the glassy dust will naught but rise
