My Indigo crashed upon your dark

 I acquiesced

         ...into yours

 

 

erudite and savage

  owl eyes

              with furtive glances

 

the maverick

       not one soul could resist

 

with a predilection

      to hold a room captive

  upon your entrance

 

always serendipitous 

       your synchronicity

 

 

     a perfect harmony

         you who were always

 

                   ........superfluous with sincere charm

 

 

you lived exactly how you pleased

and almost got away with it

 

 

then it all  went dark 

   ....far too soon....

 

  the cosmos

   ...less iridescent

 

       in your

       ... (individuated) absence
