Broken Verses

The sun set low And my heart split asunder The wind blew hard with traces of slow Darkness spread around and pierced deep under My blooming valley of roses Causing them to wrinkle and writher Poison seeped through my immaterial illusionary world And caused my heaven a devastating destruction Smithereens of cutting glass started flowing in my blood Caused me to shed tears, which made my imaginary world flood The night seemed eternal, the silence so bloody Chilled my nerves with horror so relentlessly Stung my heart with so horrible notions O how I wished I could lose myself in a twirling motion With sight and tears, my head rested to a weak slumber Jerked awake the next morn with a head struck with thunder The tears so mercilessly had intervened with my peace connection To stay serene for the next few hours was something beyond imagination O how I dearly desired the whole ordeal was just a wicked dream But reality chases one even in a protective realm Ambled I feebly with a heart soaked in dolor To a room which I considered my treasure trove Where I had hatched all my sunny memories and flourished in their fragrance Where flowed swiftly my memory river with steadiness With broken sighs and a distressed heart I set forth to design a beautiful card But relinquished my work before it was accomplished Well aware I was that fate would not have it acknowledged With uncontrollable emotions and a heart filled with desperation Broke off into a million tears which filled my sea of emotions With withered reminiscences and scattered notions How I wept! With great pain I sobbed As if of worthy fortunes someone had me robbed My plight seemed everlasting, my love ever flowing Through the misty valleys where there was no hope of blooming Into long cherished dreams and sentimental illusions If it was God’s ordained Will, then there was no solution Except to bear the whole trial with forbearance But I failed to practise that, and made undesired interference In matters where things were already so bleak But I ensured that my next few months were doomed to make me weak That’s another story, I desire to abandon it for now Sometimes later, so farewell for now
