Memories

by Hiro Protagonist - Leo

Shadows
Bath underneath my eyes
As I rise
To stand in the moon

Gloom
Undresses to the tune
Of the Dark One 
Far above

Yet, in these starry nights alone
I still roam
Nothing below
But the crumbling earth 

I spot a weeping ballerina
Billowy hair wrench back in a bun
Bending down to pluck rose
That withers towards the False Sun

I shake myself awake
Continue my journey
No hurry but the quivering silence
That lingers loudly in the sky

I open these shaded eyes
Drink from the past
I lay myself amongst the grass
Willing myself to drink no more

I look to the glass of milk
Above
And tell myself
To forget her.
