In the Absence of Complication

In the absence of complication, trials and tribulations become distant memories. Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes - inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind Why, had the circumstances been not so You would have listened to my frail voice As it strives to step on life's pebbles Merely to cross the river willed to us by God! Pray, you would have yourself asked me To recount to you of the many insights That the skies bestow upon me, Merely because your heart feels alive Only when connected it is to the mysticism That surrounds our bond! More, you would have believed in me Desiring me with the strength of an earthquake Seeking solely to see my ocean bed flood Ravaging lands and killing life Merely to show to the rest of the cosmos Of how moving me remains your sole duty! Had there been not so many complications between us You would have been the gorges Ready to swallow my flooding waters Merely to calm the unease that flows in me! I remain mere woman And in my gaze, You remain my God, Willed to me through the whispers of the skies In the depths of the night! Without you, the consciousness inhabiting me Will turn into dust, Easily blown off by gales and typhoons While yours would roam around, Hurt and angry at yourself For having failed to believe that life on Earth Could be imbibed with the sparks of the divine! The complications are merely due to misunderstandings And maybe to a bad timing, Pray, simplify them: Lower your swords, speak to me, listen to me, Make of me your main concern, Love me, forgive me and embrace me! See the truth in my meaning Understand that complications are merely ploys Of the darkness surrounding us, Seeking solely to foil God's plans! My eyes seek to see their reflections in yours When after whispering of my poetry to your soul You shall lay, spent and worn Wanting me to indulge in more of my art Merely to please you! In the absence of complication, My hand would be yours to rule My heart, yours to cherish And my soul, yours to inspire! In the absence of complication, You would accept the position of God That I give to you, Wanting to see me snarl at the rest of the world But, Becoming all servile and submissive to you!
