Ravenai - Sanctuary







poetry

short stories

images from my life

a condensed sample of my stuff







Sanctuary
The rain falls softly
Gently caressing me
With its sensual touch.
Lightning brightens
The darkened sky with
Momentary and blinding
Flashes of brilliance.
Thunder reverberates
Through my weary bones
The clouds blanket
My limited vision
Showing nothing
Yet hinting at everything.
The wind cools my skin
In a desperate attempt
To heal my burning flesh
As the night holds true
To my inner most fears
And becomes once again
My sweetest sanctuary.
