Mellifluous Lyrical Crushing

crushing defeat
   in 
     abyss 
         of 
          nostalgia
                   for 
          overnight 
       reminds me 
     of 
  you 
& city lulls 
      tumult 
          of 
         memories
              from 
                neolithic 
                       times
                        to
                celebrate 
              words
              of
          believer 
          of 
       love 
& soulmates

listen
   to
    chirping 
        of 
         birds
            mellifluous
                   sounds
                       in     
                   perfect 
              balance 
              of 
           angst 
      & blithe
similar 
  to 
    heartbeats
       when
          colliding
              of
                love 
                  happens
                     &
                     dusk 
                          unhappens
                 smiling
            teasing
        holding 
    hands
     in
  belatedly
yin 
   & yang

in
   Edenic
       dreams
           psalms
                of 
                 spring
                   breathlessly
                     blossom
                   beyond
                blurred
             verses
             &
          cursed
       cravings
    covets
  kissing
&
  erupting
      under 
         elysian
            edging
                achings
                   drip
                       in 
                        gold
                         & cream
                            to 
                        smitten
                      singing
                      a
                   name
                 with
          brilliance
     & limitless
pleasure

NOTE::THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' (intuitive cadence)& so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

Simply brilliant ! Indeed an enigmatic form hard to explicate for a person like me skilled in writing only simple verse. Congratulations on your excellent win.... dear Lasaad.
