Amor Deliria Nervosa

The most dangerous sicknesses are those that make us believe we are well.
Lauren Oliver


sunrise transcends from thousand white moons 
enamelling specks of gold over a vast mindscape
untamed ocean, hypnotic in opulence of delight
losing in timeless fathom, all beginnings and ends
In daze of hazel eyes, a pale destiny painted red
concoction of stardust in resplendent phoenix flame
Iconic images in mesmeric limerance of  rhapsody 
play a subtle movie, in slow tempo, treble with bass.
An entangled world of uncensored thoughts meander
condescending a center of cinematic  subconscious
dissembling into a daydream swimming wonderlands
Van Gogh's Starry Nights seducing languorous senses.
a pleasant hangover , still drunk in my weariness, 
don't wake me, I'm  piqued in  amor deliria nervosa* 
an everlasting fantasy stretches in kohl of my eyes,
an Illusion of life gasping, or is it death in disguise?




*Amor Deliria Nervosa (or just deliria) is a disease in the  fiction series  Delirium Trilogy  by Lauren Oliver. It is set in a dystopian world where love is considered a disease called Amor Deliria Nervosa, but scientists have invented a cure for it.
