Welcome back – Still ( multi part poem pt1)

Still.

You stand before me.

Again.

Welcome,

I beg you stay not long.

.

Still.

The trees move slowly.

Surround.

You’re here,

Your departure so long gone.

.

Still.

The trees encroach me.

They bend.

They reach;

The branches hands of thorns.

Still.

.

You stand before me.

.

Still.

.

.

A smile?

Twisted, devil’s spawn

Stillness darkness torn

Torn asunder maw

.

Hell.

Trees fall around me.

You rise

You fall

You stayed here not for long…

Gone.

.

.

.

Still.

.

Gone.

.

This is part one of a set of poems. The other ones aren’t written yet, but they are needed to make sense of this,

haven’t written a poem in over a year – felt like something different…

Thanks for stopping by.
