Poem
Every night I close my eyes, loneliness suffocates my soul. I rapidly escape through a portal of dreams, where we once met with a passionate embrace. In your arms I felt alive, but dreams fade away like stars afraid of dawn. Loneliness returns with its gloomy silence, yet again, I am absorbed in cloudy days. I remain alone, intoxicated in your thoughts, But I yearn to be found, like an undiscovered treasure. I want to be touched, to be adored. My heart yearns to smile once more, laugh from my soul, feel alive, dancing on clouds, our stepping stones to heaven. I want just you. I recall, how the mysteries of the universe, bonded our souls to ignite lost flames. Vibrant embers floating from star to star, how stardust glittered in your hair. Naked moon shone through your eyes - as the galaxy admired us drifting nonchalantly. In horizon's black shroud, you were a masterpiece of magnification. Subtle artistry of your touch, seduced silent stars to sigh. But as each star faded away, Jealous sun stole you from me. In my breathless ambiguity, I ponder if you were a hallucination or fantasy - only my lover in distant dreams. Now the beat of my heart is out of tune, in the absence of my sacred beloved. Yet, I still feel you inside me. I curse the necessities of reality, searching for my spiritual lover. Close my eyes, to sleep for eternity - seeking that alternative phenomenon. Where romance and love reside in a never ending story. Silent One collaboration with Akkina Downing 3 November 2020 Akkina and I wrote this last night. Akkina, is a great poet who has not posted for two years, because she was bullied! I wanted to encourage her to write again and post her wonderful poems. Please encourage her by visiting her page: https://www.poetrysoup.com/poems_poets/poems_by_poet.aspx?ID=81129 Thank you
