Disappearance

DISAPPEARANCE Light baptised my forsaken body red whirling a glimmering ocean Perseidon’s crystalline tears drip-dropped into mine manifesting oyster shells Odysseus smiled blinking compassion from diamond rays of Arcturus embalming my shoulders with his terrible travels Silent my soulmate disappeared crawling onto an opposite bank into fields of chaffed wheat towards abyss black She moulted into grains of rice or maybe a ladybird’s swoon floating between Venus wings seeking her paintbrushes cleaned and singing I sought strawberry yogurt What else could sorrow do ? ©GhairoDanielsPoetry &Song2013

Gosh. Where have you been? Nice to meet such a gifted poet. I found the last line somewhat humorous, though it probably just went over my head lol
