Moon's Gravity

Casting light over

Shadows brooding in

Camp darkness, offering

An escape, a retreat

From fates hand

Rattling his inept

World cuddled in

Fear and doubt, he

Begins breathing in

Moon's elusive light

Redefining memories 

Lost in canyons built

So long ago, once

Crushed rise again

Riding on the back

Of moon's fervor

Far from Hell's Gate

Having buried his

Soul in nightmares

For too long, his

Escape waits, believed 

Breaking loose, eclipsing

Darkness' grip.
