Comfort in Isolation

A poem

A roaring thunder extends a lifeline of light and damning warmth towards everything the waves chased away

The path of absolving acquiescence is now illuminated through the crystals that flow from your tired eyes

Diving deep down in your lonely voice another thunder breaks you apart and carries away a brittle lament

Seeking a new path to greatness for a life fulfilled by echoes and a story hidden under rocks

You need to find rest now as this merciless battle rages on the rooftops of the darkened towers

Accept your blinding comfort in isolation and sink in the derelict mattress of the past you forcefully forgot

For a better tomorrow
