Eyes punctured by a crimson fire
Alone as night swells open its scars
Ripping apart the nights gentle curtain
Illuminating a sweeping valley beyond the stars

Woven leaves dance down the emerald soaked path
Grass torn from its heart sweeps across the gentle plain
As the sky begins to darken rain droplets escape from their rest
Free from all visionaries and forgotten in pain

As the valley ripped up from where it once lay
Hoisted up through a hurricanes eye
Thrown into a pool of crimson fire
That blinds its thoughts and disregards time

Persecuted soil breaks open its bonds
Natures blood spread across its darkened skin
As the silken horizon washes over its innocence
And seeps into the cracks of the earths hollowed rim

As crimson waves splash across the wasted land
Pulled under through what it doesn?t understand
Screams vanishing under a layer of unity
And beating heart pulled from a barren land

Not to nitpick, but do you barren or baron?
