Masterpiece of pain

Masterpiece of pain 

Each night is a masterpiece of pain 
that lingers in her broken heart 
trying to find what was 
and what is now

she sips memories and lives 
the curse of love in her cozy 
domicile where in the midst
 of broken stars she lost it ....

—a constellation of pains
that still stands upfront 
monumentally, gazing at its beauty 
the day that only matters 
is a memorial event that swallowed 
the one she had.

Now sitting in a canvas of thoughts 
journeying to the unreached cores 
of what was—
a thing that flickered like a storm
in the autumn winds 
now is pain that whispers its lines
to her ears for the love 
that was stolen by time 
leaving only memories 

painful —deep scars
broken —unhealed wounds 
dimmed, weary eyes 
 and hope // soons

She gets lost every blink of an eye
in the mysteries of unreached paces 
of love / what was.
