“Her deep and damp smile could feed the gardens on the edge of this town.”
— 15-word myth #85: Melissa / @azurestone9
Main waterfall at Soco, on the Cherokee Nation near the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina.
Scenes from this year's seasonal home somewhere between the Blue Ridge & the Great Smokies.
Darkness owned
The months
Time froze
Entangled
With the heartbreak
Of a winter coffin
As I slumped
Into your recliner
Smoking your last
Cigarettes
Hearing your bones
Cry gratitude
For the morphine
I pumped
And remorse
For the lost years
Clingman's Dome: Highest point in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at 6,643 feet above sea level.
#longing #october #goth #music #chills
errant leaf skipping
ahead on the gravel path
awaiting uplift
days of misted grey
silence are free as trees rust
in the mountain's arms
