The midnight shadow
of my thoughts
suspended in silence
dripping heavily
with promise
as I fight the resistance
to fall asleep.

The crow’s march
silhouettes the peaks
with shadowed wings
the ancients speak.

Shadows of night
filtered with light
a silvered iridescence
showered by the moon.

A concrete line
of jagged teeth
stretch along the horizon
with shadows beneath
the ivory towers.

Unloved remains
of an orphaned heart
always living in shadow
of sadness this sparks.

Skeleton of time
you left behind
a shadow defined
by your memory.
