Bright like Heaven

Feedback Received!

It’s bright like heaven

But burns like hell

Like the weapon

Pointed at self

Turned my diamonds

Into coal

Burned the highlands

In my soul

Take me now

My Lord, to keep

Weary brow

Now to sleep

It’s bright like day

But burns at night

The words you say

Are your might

Life or death

Strife or rest

All, up to me

Who am I..

Who am I, to be?

Haunting ghosts

And bells to see

Host of hosts

And revelries

A toast to you

And a toast to me

Seeing through

All you can be

Birds in sky

Flying free

Asking “why..”

“Why?” to me.

I haven’t written anything in quite a while, but felt like it after reading a few poems early today.

Any input valued and thanks for the read.
