in roaming streams
of death’s journey
so much
more poignant
to lose a beloved
to the soundless
laugh of love
the scent of
your absence
with ravenous
desires
on mental shores
of solitude
*
my pain wears
the mask
of a virgin

silence
as mist drips
in strands
under her shaky
fingertips
drawn on the canvas
of their love
with flaming azure
from her veins
violent red passion
from her heart
in fragile lacuna
between breath
and muse
just listen
***
accept
***
as she bleeds
into the night
with only
impressions
of him

the crescent moon
through murky skies
sparkle her light
on my salty face
as if
she could lift
me up
in embrace
and kiss me
*
ad interim
I sit here
in a poem
of reminisce
***
you touched me
with kindness
and mirth
ardor
just
yellow
– love –

meandering dreams
in angelic flight
entwined forever

musings of emotions
of fervor and love
unpropitious moments
and the cosmos cracks
unlock the chains
deep within my soul
for closure has no music
no notion in its path
a new dawn arrives
as it lingers in lacuna
no rainbows in orbit
just an empty melody
bearing on the wings
of a withered butterfly

convoluted maze
tears mixed with mud and blood
dwindled in the dust

Broken wings

like a little butterfly
with faded, broken wings
in its armored shell
waiting for the light of day
innocence in time was lost
scattered in the wind of storm
with bleeding hearts we smile
while everything turns to dust
and in the depths a melody
sprinkled on a thousand hills
as time slowly creeks by
