Blue Seclusion


The somber sky falls flustered,
wrecks the crown of bejeweled night.
The sickle moon slices its glow, 
dissolving at the brink of blue. 

In the depth of opaque onyx  
ground hears the footfall of stillness.
Glacial sense of chilled passion congeals
the exposure of lonesome secrecy.

The broken wings painfully curled,
can’t fly in the lacerating chill of winter,
enfold the frosted psyche,
fervent warmth freezes unfelt.

Frail emotive candle flame flickers,
the wind of cold abandon blows it out.
Morose mist enwraps the winter nights
within desolate distress innately framed.

The sky of longing falls frozen 
on the permafrost of arctic silence, 
with the icy torrent of the forlorn heart, 
buried deep in the gelid blue of seclusion.
