The Dark RenaissanceA Poem by Charlotte WensleydaleThe Dark Renaissance Departed now, Beyond the end You spring once More to life, To drag then mine Hewn from the rock Of my years-long Prison you gave me. The blackest river Flows, the stench Of jealousy from One who covets Things you see Within the art That I can conjure. But let that Tale that died Once now die twice, Release the fury That makes you Boil within into the air. Leave me now To claim the life You tried to wreck From ruin down Below me in the Canyon where you Left me. 2/6/19 © 2019 Charlotte Wensleydale |
