The Sovereignty of the Abandoned

Having locked the latches of the gates,
i fled for sovereignty of darkness,
free lancing among the lost,
experiencing utmost abandonment.

Suddenly a knock came from the opposite side,
a sudden calmness took control,
the wind breathed in my face,
warmth struck me.

Running towards the gate,
i snatched it widely against its bars,
color came upon my skin,
lavishing light so pure.

Falling to my knees i gave forth,
i gave my all,
releasing the locks of my gates,
i extended my hospitality.

A comforting diffusion took place,
i felt the worries abandon,
evil fled,
i was living a dream.

Looking around i saw color,
the vivid monochrome,
brightness,
such liveliness so true.

Joy flooded my gates,
a sudden change so surreal,
What is this?
i never questioned.

Traveling on and about,
sharing happiness,
inviting hearts,
warmth so peaceful.

One day i felt a coldness,
my color faded,
darkness was rolling in,
showers poured.

Fleeing to  the gates,
i saw it locked again,
screaming i was confused,
so cold i felt.

The water kept rising,
emptiness surrounded me,
a wretched soul i became,
speechless.

Trying to find an answer,
i asked my heart,
but no words were painted,
no sound not a clue.

Flooded forcefully,
i gave in,
trying to understand was difficult,
a pain so bitter.

After giving in so much,
unlocking my gates,
was it love?
i doubt it.

Love never leaves?
it never kills?
it doesn't drown,
love heals?

So as thunder rolls in,
and showers pour,
the levees break,
i breath good bye.
