In Her Dreams

~ BALevolent Virtue ~ Leave a comment

The queen lies dormant under a blanket of slowly, moving fog. The moon, her loyal vigilante, keeps the darkness from invading her peace. An orchestra of creatures serenade her gentle rhythm. In and out of slumber she pursues her distant dreams. 

In and out of slumber she pursues her distant dreams. When she turns she moves everything. She can find you with her reach. But she returns to a restful lull. All is calm as it was before. 

Everything continues, order settling once more. 

Come and rest under the swaying trees, be a part of simplicity’s bliss. Be her loving companion and let love reign eternally.

Dormant Ones Arise

The outlaws are coming,

drawing rumbles and quakes.

The walls humming in unison,

tables dancing with aches.






In the distance there’s motion





like a wave of red dust.





Hooves that clatter in rhythm,





masked men, demons in gust.










The town’s people continue





like a peaceful afternoon.





They ignore the closing chaos,





unnoticed approaching monsoon. 










A young lady kneels down





placing her palm on the ground.





A thunderous screech in the distance,





the cavalry’s victory inbound.

			

	


				
					


	

			
Paradise on the Other Side
		

				

						 ~ BALevolent Virtue			 ~ Leave a comment					

				

		

Every step forward, leaving memory of the one behind. This eternal trek however, only lives through my present mind.





It is painful when I falter, but the will still is a bit stronger. 





The exhaustion like added gravity but I know it’s not much longer.





The mountains close in slowly, crushing hope in inviting valleys. But the heart will remember the path to Paradise on the other side.

			

	


				
					


				
					


				
					


	

			
Destiny

If I knew where I was going I would tell you where to go





All I ever knew was moments and going with the flow





Sleepy hills don’t bother no one, morning wind shows us the way





If I experienced reincarnation I would live my life the same





Carry on you stubborn hero, carry on your righteous path





I know I’ll find you when I’m meant to and we’ll make that moment last

			

	


				
					


	

			
The River

I stared over the river, stress free, with all my faculties in order, just existing, just being free. 





I began walking back to my car trying to remember the last time I felt this light. Things were going the way they should and I felt life backing my every step, while God illuminated my path. 





I understood one thing that day. There is something magical about being in sync with everything. Very few times we experience this, and I’m not sure how someone arrives at this state. What I do know is that I was blessed that day and I carry that memory for another day.

			

	


				
					


				
					


				
					


	

			
Drifting 5
		

				

						 ~ BALevolent Virtue								

				

		
I walked along your ocean shore,

With curious hungry eyes.

I found a beauty you never showed,

In raining diamond hail.




I ventured in your ocean shallows,

To shelter from such wrath.

I found your tender voice in depth,

That pulled me further in.




I dragged along your ocean floor,

Crushed under your truest self.

I sank, and sank with voice to god,

But temptation sealed my fate.




In fading breath these learning eyes,

Found what true beauty brings.

In fighting breath these vengeful eyes,

Found what temptation means.
