have you found a way out
of this prison flesh and bone
laid to rest neath summer’s gaze
in green fields far from home
.
a mind wandering through starry skies
the body left behind
to watch the changeling forest
the ashes in our mind
.
Whispering rains the unseen years
no trace of seasons lost
empty halls and broken tombs
a world of ash and dust
.
back again to a softer cage
a door without a lock
walls marked by one who came and went
who looked and never saw

Tried my hand at writing some more song lyrics.

Where. Have. You. BEEN??🥲you’ve been sorely missed. Haunting piece as usual. Gives me the vibe of watching falling rain whisper softly on the ground while lost in your thoughts. 5 stars!

Hey Sol! It’s been way too long. I’ve been trying to keep on top of my schoolwork, though now I have a bit of a summer break so I should be able to write more poetry! Hope you’ve been doing well. Cheers!

Yeah I get that. Same thing with me although I think it’s more down to me not looking for stuff to write about. Hopefully I start writing regularly as well. Cheers to you!
