The Maw, Palau De Les Arts, Ciutat De Les Arts I Les Ciences, Valencia, Spain

Fear ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #250

The maw which devours me
Consumes my will
My strength
Is naught but the workings
Of my fearful mind

I breathe
Speaking the words in my mind
Over the chatter of thoughts

Breathing in
Breathing out

Displacing the chatter
My thinking stills
So that the maw closes
Upon the vacuum
That is the peace
Of a quiet mind

Without fear
To sustain it
The maw dies
Revealed as an illusion
Created by fear

Rebuild on patterns scattered
Within the broken

Before…

Before the sky
The peaks

Before the peaks
The hills

Before the hills
The valley

Before the valley
I must leave

This place of numbing
Before I die

Hold & Reveal

Dark Island
Tide recedes

Amber glow
Inner light

So long as I hold the one
Let the other be revealed

Black & Blue

Broken blackened rock
Storm season surge sunders shore
Azure calm breaks through

Worlds I Create

I create these worlds
Of personal sanctuary
A beauty and calm
Cloaking distress and fear
Palaces of chilling warmth
An argument with reality
Which cannot be won

I remind myself
The world of distress and fear
Is also a creation of mine
The cloak only gives it power
The palace of true warmth
Is the light of my own heart
Which cannot be sundered
