[!] A portrait of Borris Iver Kortrevich

 

17th of Msitza and Dargund, 412 E.S.
                

 


 

“Gone”

 

It dipped into the depths, this last light of mine.

Entrenched in this darkness, I waste away in this 

Gloom ridden tower. The skies floods with dark, 

Warm colors.. I shout, but I am consumed by

The echoing of the waves upon rocks 

On the cliffside. Nothing remains for all shall 

Fall into ruin. Just as the sun disappears behind 

The sea, so too shall you disappear under the earth.

 

 


 

“The Perfect Flower”

 

You are a dream, a myth, a ghost

Running through meadows in hopes

Of finding the most perfect flower.

A trophy to hold up, the greatest boast

A shadow to be sung of only in odes

The broken stem of a perfect flower

 

 


 

“You Left”

 

Grounded in nothing but a fool’s lost hope.

A silent, shadowy, wisp of a thing stalks us,

It hovers, growing closer, yet its face becomes

More obscured. It grows and consumes and 

Leaves chaos in its wake. Even so, it walks the 

Line of good and evil, like a spectre trapped

Between two worlds. The promise of staying.

 

 


 

“Concealed”

 

  Frost’s bloom holds a hidden smile.

It grows in secret, under a blanket of white.

Held within a thicket of reason and pain, I 

Wait for you. Ensnared, enveloped, entrenched,

My words fall upon their own swords, smearing 

Deep red ink into things I do not intend. I try to

Paint the beauty I see underneath, but the path is

Clouded by thorny brush. I try, yet I can’t get to

 That bloom which holds a hidden smile.
