Beyond The Veil

A Poem of Death's Embrace

By Casey KellerPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Beyond the veil lays a layer of secrets;

secrets of pain,

sorrow,

Loneliness, anger & truth

of regrets, and Masks which

were carefully painted through the orchestra

of high and low notes.

She came, she saw, she peered through

the darkness of the veil

and saw something so beautiful

through the creatures pain.

Her fingers healed the outer edges

which burned into the depths

of the darkness and soon a light

overwhelmed the pains,

the regrets, the sorrows.

Anyone whom has tried to see

through the pain only saw the hurt

which overwhelmed their spirits.

The orchestra of notes

brought healing to others

even through his darkness;

which consumed the

being's veil of pain

deepening the depths of his soul.

Loneliness was the companion

to his veil,

It was screaming in a crowded room

and not being heard

or being alone on a crowded bridge

drenched from the tears

of heavens angels.

Her fingers reached my soul

only to be brought by death's embrace.

The veil consumed my being to

never to be heard or seen again.
