Loves Lament

A euphoric emptiness that lasts forever
An eternity trapped in tangled time
Emotions that fly through the nilpotent never
A lasting love with a calamitous climb

Floating memories that sail through space
Where tears are shed and shadows weep
And saddened souls have lost their place
Within the dumpsters of the desolate deep

Mind and matter creating crystalline hells
There demons roam with a restless rule
Where blood turns cold with crusted cells
Slowly salivating with their demonic drool

Can love be found in this cabalistic cave
Or is it laboriously lost but only to enslave.

If a lament can be beautiful (and it can) this certainly is. The ending question says it all.

Great alliterations, vocabulary that ups the bar and a questioning couplet to hang the end with...a fascinating sonnet worth many reads to absorb the words, mood and greatness of it. :)

So true and so eloquently written WW. The fastest way to stop the pain is to meet someone new. Beautifully melancholic. #7 ; )
