Existence Enshrined
The rhapsody of rainbow
melts in morose mélange,
the concoction of colors
bleeds in silence,
sucked out
of crumbled core of cloud,
soothing rain rinses
the stains on broken hearts,
shades of grey paints
the frayed linen of love
redundant.
The requiem of longing rose
resonates melancholic medley
in the portals of petals,
the faded patina
holds the tear
in pearls of mourning dew,
desiccates uncared
under the summer sun
of the desert mind,
the wilted flower falls
on weathered gravestone
of spent passion
departed.
The cacophony captured
in the melody of forlorn music,
chaotic symphony floats
out of tune
on disharmonic wave,
strained smiles displayed
with elusive enactment
in ostentatious podium of life,
songs turn into echo
of convoluted noise
in hollow souls
pretentious.
The facet of life
seen entranced
through liquefied layers
of cynical stratum,
configures pessimism
in the sunken essence
of living exaltation,
the apparent aspect
refracts defiled expression
of warped existence
enshrined.
