Coherent Chorus of Compassion

I write my thoughts 
on paper,
 let  ink of my soul
      glow, amidst the grief
     I carry in echoing stillness, 
   for it is through words,
     I’ve found healing, 
  my muse that wrapped
    my aching skies, 
unraveling
     pristine poems 
     painted with love. 

It all started on a
bitterly blurry night, 
when the heat
 of my art streamed~ 
splashed with 
   sizzling flavors 
of sunflower sunsets
and 
  turquoise triggers 
within woeful poems, 
and I weave
letters of lentil longing
across ivory sands, 
weaving a 
kinder reflection,
of how 
my hollow 
  hands were 
     held hostage~
grieving in a 
hauntingly smoky 
haze of hopelessness, 
through wicked 
   ways of 
  sinister summer 
warmth that ruptured 
my 
   daffodil dreams, 
like wintry coldness 
drifting in hues 
of 
   dusky darkness. 

I remember 
 serenading hope,
 to the blazing gales,
which clouded my
 bones with 
piercing glaciers,
of how I felt so alone
 in a castle fortified 
with ruined rituals 
and 
spine-tingling requiems,
until the universe 
unwrapped your
cashmere silhouette, 
to place 
  riveting rhymes 
within 
   lamented lungs~
in the form 
   of sanguine sonnets,
as rose-colored reveries 
bloom in
my irretrievably 
   infatuated eyes. 

Maybe, karma had 
a coherent chorus 
for twin-flames 
    destined 
to
  cosmically merge~
as I stole the lotus moon 
for you and scribbled 
poetic odes
    with celestial ink,
flowing as
   twinkling lunar lakes.

You are the embodiment 
of the inked oceans flowing
   through mauve metaphors, 
you watched 
   me rebirth as the 
queen of 
  rosemary red runes,
whirling across gracefully green 
splendors within your 
secret flower garden~
luring butterflies to
   waltz with swan-souls,
breathing over dandelion 
seeds with
orchestrated 
   compassionate confessions,
softening thick ruffles
 of darkness roaring 
above mountains between us;
but distance means 
nothing when your 
   mellifluous voice spirals 
as a magical mirror,
guiding 
 me back to a
radiantly idyllic 
    realm of us,
where we 
   will twirl as one,
for this is the sacred
story of a 
  hypnotic heart 
that sparks 
amidst 
  frostbitten fantasies.
My love for you,
ricochets through 
   the glistening stars 
in the deep 
   denim dusted night sky.
