Neon sky
Candy clouds
Let us fly
through the shrouds
Through this humanity
Before us now
Come with me
To dance a ring
Around the graves
For those who died
For better things.
Shards of glass
Pointing up
From blackened earth
Glinting in the
Darkened sky.
the only light
Cold and blue
Remains barely
Showing over
The jet
Horizon.
Snowy bats
Hang
Clinging
Red eyes
Gleaming
Dripping contrasts
Whispers
Through
Barren trees
Calling to
Us.
Rumbling
Growling
From the
Troat of
Some
Beast of
Shadow.
Sparkling
Glittering
Glinting
Black-glass
Cloaked
Citadel rising
Like a
Crown of thorns
From the ash.
Turrets winding
Stretch toward
Nothingness
Iron doors
Latched
And foreboding
Spidery windows
Show no light
No life
Within these
Walls
Rainbows fly above
Overhead
Cracked
colors dulled
As if
They were in the
Sun for
Far too long.
Emerald forest lies
Across the plains
Decieving those from
Afar
Drawing in
The naive
Never letting them
Out
Never to escape.
An image of
Light and dark
Intertwined
Completely one
Completely two.
How soft
The snow is
When it falls
Frozen hills
Frozen grass
Frozen stones
Engraved names
For those who
Did indeed
DIE
For better things
But they're not here
I doubt they will be
So let's sit back
And watch this world
Entertain us with
Its new antics
Everyday
'Never more'
A raven did quote once
And little did that bird
Acknowledge
Of just how corred he
Was.

- This is just as good as your other one! biggrin I really love how each line contradicts each other, with the light happy imagery and the dark imagery. Tee hee~ Another job well done!
