Fantasy of the Heart

This night of silence with its moonglow offers me a long-sought resolution towards serenity allowing my thoughts to wander into my past with a "visualization" to another time filled with beautiful faces that will never age drifting "whimsy" memories When life was love and love was lived like a devotional "dream" to be captured and injected with fragrant flowers In a world filled with colorful "imagination" and engaged "reverie" I lift my eyes to the night sky holding each bittersweet recollection When I shared my heart Remembering each face caressed that hangs suspended in my mind, resting like a "hallucination" of motionless yesteryears When my heart dripped sobs from tender desires And life was never thought of Rather lived and experienced, drenched by passing lovers trapped in emotional landslides of tortured expectations Leaving too many eyes, I looked into becoming shadows of stolen, sad years that weigh heavily in this night of silence where I'll ask my heart for forgiveness
