An oasis among the glass
How can you describe something that cannot be described?
How can you explain that which cannot be explained?
There are no words only pictures in my head.
A dark figure standing in a desert of glass.
Light endlessly reflected within every shard.
Every move an exquisite duet of pain and agony.
In the darkness of the moon bitter cold seeps inside.
In the brilliance of the sun fire digs its claws deep.
Shattered winds scrape shard upon shard in a scream of song.
But there is only silent determination from the figure.
The figure pauses and raises a hand to shade the glare of endless light.
There ahead can you see it?
It is a dream an ache of wishes.
Brittle fear that it is a dream and an ache of wishing it is not.
A dazzle of colour dropped like a jewel into a desert of grey upon grey.
Even the air is a brilliance of colours.
Softly creeping on cool green grass its sweet scent enveloping.
A gentle sigh of air across blue waters bring tears to eyes wide in wonder.
There is no glass to splinter torment.
There are no licks of fire and no ache of cold.
There is only quiet warmth in the raidience of its glow.
An oasis among endless shattered days and nights.
The figure will not give this up so do not think to ask it.
There are no words to explain this thing.
There is no description to come close.
Only that it is an oasis amongs shards and splinters of glass.
But even this comes no where near what it is like.
