Poem: Horizon's Gold Dust Ambered Glow

Horizon’s Gold Dust Ambered Glow

©Biz Gainey 2014

Trapped alone in lonely moments

lost to me is hope once known;

Bleak the view of yesteryear - between now

And tomorrow’s yet to come.

Groping eyes halfsighted see

 beyond this prison walled,

‘Neath lonely moments built by me.

Trapped alone in lonely moments

                seized by lust which scrapes me dry;

Erodes all gifts of cherished world as

Shallows roll desire’s tide.

My heart drowns

in thirst beneath its swell.

                Beguiled and hollowed life, she bleeds;

My heart’s tomorrow lost, Sadly

She weeps! 

Faint tears betray her whispered cry.

Trapped alone in lonely moments

                tattered and fray-ed

Yet my heart spies!

Horizon’s gold-dust ambered glow,

Enchants!

New life birthed from womb strife,

Arouse!  tomorrow’s yet to come.  

Eternal!

Beams tomorrow bright; Once

Trapped alone in lonely moments

Horizon’s gold dust ambered glow,

Enchants!

My heart’s deep cry.

Tomorrow’s hope need never die!
