At the center of the hurricane blast, within the lightning Flash lies the wicked eye of the calming storm, a weeping Echoing of a widow maker’s somber moment, stilled by Frozen remembrance lost beneath the traitorous waves Of a broken heart! Lantern lights cast an eerie shadow across the desolate Sand dunes, in silences isolation this prisoner of passions Tempest refuses to admit loves vanquished flame, yelling Against the howling storms hellish rage, I’ll not give him up, You’ll not taketh my beloved’s spirit away! Rolling is the tides of forget-me-knots folly, a crushed Rose crumpling beneath the harsh torrents lash! Rushing at accelerations cyclone speed the clouds Of destructions malice, charge at she, yet loves Devotional stands strong, held by the anchor rooted Within cherishes everlasting spiritual longing! The grappling fingers of an angry aquatic under sea lord, Thrashes unmerciful at the rocky edges of death’s Blackened hand slamming, hammering against destiny’s Grave stone of reality’s forsaken! The lanterns light flickers for a seconds hushed pause, Here in that momentary lull passion faces vengeance, In a war of the faded roses, no one wins except the Tears of the storm! Bitter flowery petals cling onto the rocks of desires Sheltering cove beyond, as two faded shades Silhouettes meet amongst the waves of the vanquished! But in loves torrential rain united, no power on earth Or in hell’s feverish pitch, shall separate these spirits forever Bound within the human heart, for true love concurs All! BY: CHERYL ANNA DUNN
