Eolian Apparitians
Angelic lineaments of grace
Slyphine dance without retrace
Eolian wisps wreathe about her
Within me, emotions bestir

Beauty lost to this Earthly race
Beg thee not leave without a trace
Evanescent, she smiles, bids me farewell
But I shall not say "fair thee well"
I reach out, but she is lost to me
Gone with that which bore her o'er the sea
To me...

Alone, without you, My Nameless Angel...
Forsooth, is a memory enough?



Nothing
Enter Boredom
Less than seldom
would it will itself come

Enter listlessness
Lacking finesse
An utter regress

Enter nothing
Darksome nothing
Is everything



An Ember

An ember burning
Whilst ashes falling...

Fiery Companion; a familiar sight
Burning Champion; a friend in the night
Noctural Light; shield thine maker from strife
Friend-in-the-Night; ward a traveler's life

An ember shining
The fire failing...

Heart of Fire; warm on a blind-eyed face
Dancing Ether; heat meets heaven's embrace
Tongues of Crimson; waver at life's ending
A Companion; in warmth friendship lending 

An ember glowing
The night-wind singing...

Ember's Soft Glow; reflected in his eyes
Scarlet Halo; gleams bright then slowly dies
Embers fading, now lost, ashen
An Ember, never forgotten

An ember waning
Ashes remaining...
