Poem Title:
Poem
In the seamless sky of my fervent yearning, I let the enraptured songbird of my heart soar high, glide in the spring-rippled amorous breeze that carried your jasmine fragrance to me. The dawn splashed the sumburst spectrum of delight, blossomed the budding euphoric dreams in the dormant domain of depthless desire. I didn’t see the concealed clouds of betrayal slither in the somber horizon of deception. Through the falling night specks of darkness slid, in its flood as my longing essence sank I couldn’t hold on to your hands as before, for you freed yourself from my abandoned embrace. Splintered in the threshold of tarnished twilight, in the vortex of turmoil I saw the debris of me disappear with my devoured dreams in the stormy night. Demolished, I was sucked into its virulent void. In the empty cauldron of emotion, engulfed by the raging sense of consternation, I was submerged immobile within the state of stasis, while the frozen response shriveled my mind. Unfulfilled expectations hit my heart hard, promises unkept flung fiery blows of torment. My mangled mind caught fire of the desolate wild, blazed the tender time of elusive endurance. The flame flowed from my burning mind, singed the sensual meadow of my love. Through the billowing smoke, thick and blinding, I came out of the ruins, saw the beauty life was. Before my ember conscience burnt the soul, I rose from the ashes like Phoenix, self-consoled and sane. In the burnt down psychic terrain deep within I discerned the piled-up wreckage of lilting life unlived, turning the flushing garden to an ashen dump. The innovative impulse of self-preservation invented the arcane acumen of alchemy, glittered gold in the rusted crust of ruins, crowned by the sapphire sky canopy, spread seamless in fervent freedom, waited for me to scale the height of ecstasy and to dwell in the silver-lined clouds.
