Gilded Life

Lost in a labyrinth of
Glistening sights
Infinitely out of reach,
Trembling amidst sweeping mistrals, 
Fabricating a life of nostalgic allusions,
Caught in lapsed reveries, of 
Restless arias and faint rustlings
Sequestering my rampant aura,
Bleeding in russet naivety, 
Evaporating in silent elegies.

This is such a deeply moving and heartfelt poem by you as always my beautiful soul sis, gilded life you’ve depicted so well and the way you’ve written is so very intriguing and soul hitting: i especially loved the lines “ lost in a labyrinth of glistening sighs” wow! That is something i would feel too and write! We always think alike: “ caught in lapsed reveries” whoa! “Bleeding in russet naivety” i feel you! What a powerful writ! I feel the angst! And the flow is seamless! Pleasure reading you
