Palette of Picturesque Pigment

Her persona is like a portrait of picturesque perfection, embalmed in bittersweet lavender, unseen within depths of tributaries of elixir. If only they knew the chaos that flows, constrained in a confined gallery of grief. Not everyone is a master painter. Some brush with brutal bruised strokes, provoking timeless streams of implicit secrets, from crimson stains on ivory satin, where scents of juniper evoke phases of unpredicted phenomenons, oblivious to chronicles of forsaken tales, which hide beneath barriers, many have struggled to venture within. But there is an artist with a pastel on his palette, that can correct her disfigured pigment. He holds cryptic calligraphic engravings, veiled behind the inflamed chamber of her heart. He understands that her spirit drowns when winds are forceful. How her delicateness has been sleeping on withered roses, wilted by cruelest rays of a summer mourning morning star, Where bedtime stories were puppeteered by hurricanes feeding on fenceless vulnerabilities. yet when sleepless silence sings, it can disturb in reverberating heavy metal screams. So she echoes her trauma through hurtful hisses, poisoning with vicious venom. Her aura alters in acrimonious attitudes from serene sunshine to furious gales. She remains without a grip on untamable seasons of unholy torture, Only he knows the poem in her eyes is the last train home, so he calms her tempest temperament, enabling hidden rainbows in her mind to reappear. He is a soothing gemini night-flower, even with outcries of midnight thunder, his patience resembles raining jasmine water, purifying her murky waters, into a crystallised milky-way of kyanite desires, guiding her to swirl and swoon into whirlwinds of closure.

Hi Empress, I run short of words to praise this work of art. Not every one is an artist and not every poet is a poet. But you are with 'a pastel in your palette that can blot out all disfigured pigments' and create rain bows. This romantic poem reflects the poignany of a burning heart and the soothness of balm poured over a flaming volcano. Wonderful and into my FAVE. Congratulations on your top win.

Ink, oh my giddy aunt.. this is.. well, there are no words really. You should find an audio for this it deserves it! You have the knack of reaching in and pulling out emotion I thought had vanished: "Where bedtime stories were puppeteered by hurricanes feeding on fenceless vulnerabilities" I don't know how you do it, but it's brilliant. And a Shakespeare quote too :)))

oh this is so romantic... you write romance so well, just as proficiently as you write your darkness ones... so many lovely lines in your romantic musing here, do not know where to start with the praise.. Not everyone is a master painter. Some brush with brutal bruised strokes... yes you are right, not everyone knows how to love properly or to handle certain people, you need the right artist.. and i really liked the line about Gemini night flowers... simply beautiful poem..

Woww, you never cease to impress me with such spellbinding and whimsical wordsmithery which compels me to waltz in the depth of these poetic emotions.. The way you've written about a love, which isn't perfect but divine & heavenly in forms.. Where the beloved is like a sweet zephyr who knows how to calm the raging storms of her heart..I'm enchanted by your eloquent descriptions, imageries and metaphors.. Also the adjectives and alliteration, so profound! Every relationship has highs and lows but

But what matters is, staying together for each other throughout and until the end..! To find someone who actually understands our silence, is really the one we should cherish n treasure.. I love so many lines here "Not everyone is a master painter.Some brush with brutal bruised strokes", "But there is an artist with a pastel on his palette", "Only he knows the poem in her eyes is the last train home", "He is a soothing gemini night-flower" Ahh, I'm a huge fan of your poems, Ink!!! This one's really magnificent.. Every line I adore! Best wishes for the contest :)
