Solitude By the Reverie

Solitude by the Reverie What is a rose, that’s not been held? adorned or gazed upon… What are hands that haven’t been touched? caressed or kissed… What is a slow beating battled heart? fragilely fettered flaccid… What is a smile standing still? seduced by simulated seduction… ~ What is a life lived without love? a staccato shattered symphony… What is the wind without direction? a cognitive dissonance dessert dust… What are eyes that cannot see a face? inept illusions of silent seclusions… What is a soul without love’s embrace? a sailing solitude sequestered and scorned.
