Requiem.

To your silhouetted eyes I cling interminably Long after I’m a faceless unrecalled name Each memory starring the blanket of night Fragmenting into blackness with each dawn Reciprocated secrets locked within furtive eyes As of ocean crests obsessing the fall of raindrops Drowning out the whispered pining desires Celestial radiance unceasingly adorned spreading Reproachable gossamer ensnaring me whole Promising ambrosia in the horizons distant light Evoking nostalgic vows from lilac meadows past Beneath the ancient constellations my love declared eternal A myriad of uncounted years have you defined my spirit Of mislaid lives have I given you back to light whence we came Era’s forgotten lost in the mists Names unspoken upon unknown tongues In climes previously trekked searching over and over I choose this cycle enduring anguish if it is mine to elect The dust of time struggled is calloused upon my feet I shall persist in this journey of searching our fates To find you again... Beholding those eyes
