March 28, 2006 - Sequestered Souls

sequestered souls
tonight the sky was dark

there was a gash in her veil

a lighter blue of topaz shone through the night's torn fabric

revealing a wound unknown, unseen, unfelt

stumbling through the dark

the mist glistened in the sparse light

the shadows, they just listened

as they sought refuge behind outstretched arms

a brisk zephyr rushed by

numbing all it came into contact with

wounds neglected, not permitted to mend

leaving souls sequestered

alone, in vessels that refuse to give voice
