Dismal twilight and ethereal lies flowed over the weeping rain.
Fading shadows of a forsaken past were bleeding through their black veils.
Transcendent whispers floated untamed and elusive at the sight of the uncertainty.
Darkness and deceit entwined under the gloomy clouds of a reckless storm.
In the realm of illusions and reality, secrets lingered as silent screams.
Longings and memories were softly doomed as nothing could have rescued them.
The moon’s embrace eclipsed brilliant glowing stars.
Whenever in celestial obscurity, shadows and radiance interlaced.
Shimmering lights adorned the night sky, while hushed truths were hidden beneath the veil of deception.
Slowly, the gloomy dead of night descended over every garden of sparkles and flowers, fiercely shattering everything into dust.
The absolute silent horror reigned in the realm of oblivion and nothingness.
And nothing could have been spared from the relentless grasp of eternal silence.

Dismal Twilight

Dismal Solitude
Dismal solitude in a cold and misty atmosphere
In a midnight of ghastly lights
Silent sensations of a paralyzing fear
Blind doors to the unknown
Once the future is encapsulated in the past
Longings appeared as sighs of hopeful dreams
Narration of nothingness under the disguise of a show
Vanity and idleness would have been escapism
Shadows of lost memories and imagination
Gloomy rooms with no views under a thatched roof
Hidden stars flaming in a deserted silence
Heaviness overwhelmed like anxiety
In a terrible slumber of the reason
Blind lies were fueled by lamps of deception
Motionless and pallid lights reflected in broken mirrors
A burning madness without any merriment
Endless bitterness of formless shadows
A surreal decay of fragile impermanence
Chaotic unconsciousness drowned in the mystery
Absolutism and silence were defeated in a storm of emphases
An ethereal delight and wisdom hid many transcendental secrets
The radiant luster of a shadow drowned in tears
Hopes and fears were invisible phantoms of chased dreams
Madness crawled into a solitary storm
Mysteries and dust of sorrow spoilt in the dimness of the night
Desolation and decay sparkled over the doomed and aimless wandering
Gloomy and dreary domains of melancholy
Where memories fall into abandonment and anguish
Absurdities and forgotten alienations ghastly resurfaced from unhallowed slumbers
Disquietudes and solemn passions departed from eternal longings
Concealed perceptions of indefinite shadows faded into darkness
A desolate gloom sunk in an iced dreariness
The imagination of shadowy fancies swallowed hopes and dreams
Oppressive clouds hung in a dark and dull evening sky
Dreariness and melancholy pervaded the gloom of the night
The iciness of thoughts and hideous imagination were invading the contemplation
No sublimity was left in the insoluble mysteries
Ghastly shadows annihilated sorrowful impressions
Decayed dreams and mystic leaves of black rose flowers became sorrow and stern
Pervading everything and making gloomy every solace of minds
An oppressive stupor disappeared in the midst of dread
An apathy of senses faded in the darkness
Phantasmagoric lusters of lost longings fled to reveries and shadows
Mystic fantasias sporadically emerged in the thoughts’ dominion
The delight of silent destinies was agitated by oppressive secrets
Sparkling pearls of wisdom and fantastic impressions pervaded the intense darkness
The beauty and nightmare of a tempestuous and gloomy night faded in the infinite darkness
And the fearless irreverence of obliviousness swallowed every hope and dream
Leaving a ghastly emptiness in the endless chaos of the universe.

Dark Nightmares
Dark nightmares of morning glow
They were rising like a gentle breeze
Like heavy clouds begun to wander
Across the infinite horizon of my sight
The pleasant summer nights faded from my memories
Till the moon came gently down and my eyes gazed a far candle
In a dark chamber of grey stones
Remembering the sunny weather of the past years
I never ceased to build my castle
Writing down broken notesDark nightmares
As all the visions from a distant past are gone
And now my nightmares are glued with pains
When memories become dark, the whole world disappears
Cold dreams are like the frosty winter wind
In time I must flee, and my voice becomes true
As long as I’m alive and anguish pricks my heart
I live in a dim silence
A lotus grazes my imagination
Still lost within myselfDark nightmares of my senses’ slumber
The long loneliness of my heart
Moments lost in the world
Like shadows of a dream
Not a breath in my own mind
Thoughts belonging to the labyrinth of my soul
Far in the mist
Lying deep inside of myself
My wishes do bother me
Every time I glimpse the pain in my heartDark nightmares drag me to the infinite abyss of despair
So dismal and cold is my soul that it became dead
I’ve grown so restless in sorrow
While nothing in my life occurs but silent dreams
The sky is only a cold essence
And I am forever lonely
I walked through the darkness with a blue wind hitting me
Like tiny daggers slashing my skin
When a hasty storm broke the clouds into dust
Hushed by a mournful silence, I embraced my everlasting grief.Dark nightmares and illusions
They came and shed darkness
While each memory bent my emotions
A swarthy shudder whispered unrevealed secrets
A sea of fire emerged at the sound of my tears
Madness and dismay became my consolation and comfort
Fleeing from an insane lodging
In a fleeting moment where fragments of my soul were scattered in the cold gusts of indifference
Buying busy weeping my broken dreams
When the shadows of the clouds cast a spell on me.
