Listen to poem:

Sustaining Secretive Solitudes

I put aside my heart where love betrays the nestled night, And egotistical echoes fall short in their submissive stagger… Sanctioned solitudes fill the antagonizing abrasive air, As my eyes stare through the never-ending vapourific voids. The essence of the love I held extinguishes upon existence, Like a severed statuesque Idol I only feel the empty now… My tangled tears run dry for I cannot wilfully weep, Only the lachrymose rain supports me with solace. Now stands before you the rigamortis ruins left to rot, No sounds I hear, only entombments of a chambered heart… No words I speak, enslaved by illusionary imbecilic love, I am lost in the wandering wilderness of non-existence.
