Nurture - Vesuvius

Fractured fingers

Pace the corridors of your eyelids

Engulfed in the cold of winter's hull

I drift

Into a sombre coma

Images so colorless and pale

Scarred by the lucidity of your body

Buried alive

There lies no nurture upon the foundation of a broken home

I feel your spirit earthed within my skin

Your pulse and your presence course through my wrists

My body will burn just as yours did

Lit by the disparity of my emptiness

I bore witness to your fabricated guise

Consume the sentiment confined within a child's eyes

You are the chasm enclosed within my chest

Lest I lay my ambivalence to rest

Let my abhorrence manifest

I still feel you

My words and poems have turned sombre and grey

Upon the violence of nature

Whisking you away

A stranded child of dismantled faith

That no act of god could remunerate

Living breathing deadweight

And with the coming of my heresy

Downstream your body dissipates

Get up

I still discern the scars of your abandonment

There will spore no growth upon the casket of your lifeless soul

I feel your spirit earthed within my skin

Your pulse and your presence course through my wrists

My body will burn just as yours did

Lit by the disparity of my emptiness

My my beautiful boy

Let my saunter guide you through

There s an acquired beauty in vacancy

And this I pass unto you

Sacred mother

You buried harmony in my palms

But in the scarcity of life's advent

I still seek your love and calm

My son

I beg you to find my light

The cancer was far too corrosive

A state too delicate to fight

My calloused fingers pray upon your presence

An animosity too dense to hold

Within an all but empty promise

I will carry you wherever I may roam

The spirits and torments that guide me into the hole in which I reside

They sing songs of your name at night

And if we were to make everything right

Be the bearer of my light

And I'll become your sacrifice

I will carry you wherever I may roam

This house is no longer a home
