Petals Of Pain
Within the fragile frame of my fervent heart,
tinged with the tinsels of the amorous night,
my love gleamed with an enticing glow,
reflected in the sequins of your subtle grace.
In my psyche I felt the tempting touch
of your intangible mesmeric charisma,
but you sauntered away from my entranced sight
like the autumn cloud across my dream sky.
From the threshold of my desire reverie
your footprints disappeared, I didn’t know where.
With the turquoise thread of lingering longing,
I weaved the filigree of fantasy in my dream.
From the ebony edge of the night of despair
storm clouds surged with thunder of tearing strife,
splintered my dream, dispersed in debris,
as my valentine turned into a gory whirlwind.
I heard the squelch of submerging sorrow
nearing my heart stealthily once again,
resonated the lilt of lilac pulsation,
with the unheard echo in the sensory veins.
The miasma of melancholy enveloped
the shattered landscape of longing.
The sigh of its drifting desolation
trailed the dissenting resonance of remoteness.
Suffused with the diffused drizzle
of my fading love at somber sunset,
you disappeared beyond the gloomy garden,
once a desire den of our delightful days.
Your departing kiss turned into a nibble,
as like a vampire you stinged my emotive rose.
Its purple petals of bloody pain made a wreath
for the wreckage of my broken heart.
