Loves Lament

A euphoric emptiness that lasts forever An eternity trapped in tangled time Emotions that fly through the nilpotent never A lasting love with a calamitous climb Floating memories that sail through space Where tears are shed and shadows weep And saddened souls have lost their place Within the dumpsters of the desolate deep Mind and matter creating crystalline hells There demons roam with a restless rule Where blood turns cold with crusted cells Slowly salivating with their demonic drool Can love be found in this cabalistic cave Or is it laboriously lost but only to enslave.

If a lament can be beautiful (and it can) this certainly is. The ending question says it all.

Great alliterations, vocabulary that ups the bar and a questioning couplet to hang the end with...a fascinating sonnet worth many reads to absorb the words, mood and greatness of it. :)

So true and so eloquently written WW. The fastest way to stop the pain is to meet someone new. Beautifully melancholic. #7 ; )
