Alicia Gordon Biography

'How you die, ' black Death states,

'does not determine what awaits.'
...

Dimmer than ever does life now feel.
Emotions so tender, so soft and surreal.
Fevers of winter sprout in the spring.
My heart needs a song while there's nothing to sing.
...

If my heart shows icy stone,
my deepest kingdom overthrown,
than only by God's grace alone,
shall I be forgiven, taken home.
...

I set a dream while I'm awake,
My eyes clench tight for my own sake.
The visions come which I intake,
Leisurely escaping a familiar heartache.
...

When I seal my eyes
I will to freeze
In place I long
to drink on ease.
