Ambiance

Ambiance

An essence of a view imbedded in night,
Wrapped with flickers of steel grey light,
Stirs restlessly behind the iris.

Shade tossed through the soul by icy breezes
Paints a landscape where everything freezes
And crumbles into nothingness.

This image upon my retina is an illustration
From the plains becoming a manifestation
That erases the borders.

The line grows thinner, it seems to fade,
The world and the mind mix in a cascade
Of confusion swirling so swiftly.

The wintry scene lacking luminosity that I see
Tangles with the mood of mine to some degree
And I cannot tear them apart.

Perhaps what my eyes catch cannot leave
Or their outlook may cause the land grieve.
I seem to be out of answers.

If there ever was a difference it’s deceased
Or perhaps the similarities simply increased.
In any case my worlds collided.
