Notes About The Poem

Betwixt twilight, in hypnotic trance

Lapping waters compose sensual dance

Lovelorn sap pines in vain

Downtrodden, return nary ordain

 

Neon allure gleaming down

Gifting halo upon petal crown

How cruel tis luster on display

Beauty, aware most risqué

 

Briny tears remain unshed

Tender words gone unsaid

Sunrise blushes skies

Dispelling unrequited ties

 

Sunkist upon petals smutch

Balm, like healing touch

Bask ‘neath celestial shine

Wispy swells, thou art divine

Unrequited

Betwixt twilight, in hypnotic trance
Lapping waters compose sensual dance
Lovelorn sap pines in vain
Downtrodden, return nary ordain

Neon allure gleaming down
Gifting halo upon petal crown
How cruel tis luster on display
Beauty, aware most risqué

Briny tears remain unshed
Tender words gone unsaid
Sunrise blushes skies
Dispelling unrequited ties

Sunkist upon petals smutch
Balm, like healing touch
Bask ‘neath celestial shine
Wispy swells, thou art divine

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
