Aura

Galvanic analgesia Settled my Nervous jangle, keys Rattled in echo chambers Ravaged the still of the Sultry craven day And the nocturnal torpor. Abided hush in cotton wool, Silenced by her aura, Dampened me down, Soaked me up, saviour Saved herself and quelled My agitate. In so doing, this halo Shone sedation upon My turmoil, and smoothly Cracked the code On vaulted sleep, It's encrypted malady. When twice removed, missed Her vacating respiration, Missed the beating of her Heart, now pounds for someone Else, someone other Than I. I call out in tacit phrasing, By scant implication, Some minute grain of mercy In her mind will tease, Beseech her aura dwell upon me Still, once in a while.
