An Empty Mind

The water tinkled down My memory lane Sweet was the sound of pain As I gently remembered her face Moving along the rim The angel softly touched My heart strings one by one As emotions danced their Rawness away, glowing In the afterthought of achievement Weak fountains sprung thru the sinews Awakening the darkening desires The flowers sighed and fell Before her teary grave As passion held in its arms An empty mind, an empty body 19-11-12 By Tahera Mannan For Nette’s SYNESTHESIA : INNER BODY MOVEMENT

This is very beautiful and telling. I liked the last line "an empty mind, an empty body. That's exactly what I saw. Hard to comprehend. Thanks for your comments on "My Garage."
