Mystery

J.P. Hill

I conceal myself in the bleak. Between black and white I roam. I curse the edge of moonlight. The sun I vow to overthrow.
Forgiveness here no fate formed. Eyes open when the world lies closed. A wreck put together to break. Visions of the realm once home.
I stand ground on shifting earth. I fell ahead to be last in line. The bitter edge I offer from the beginning. My end is the enigma overthrown.
Purpose made without plain reasons. Honest until the mirror image shatters. Seeker without a truth to find. Being here is never able to undo.
Back to black my sight and stance. Reasons I reap without a deaths cause. Sight I lost from her world. The fallen angel behind all loss.
The riddle inside the questions core. A marked mind dealt with madness. Walking away forever incomplete. Without an end to the mystery.
