Hurt and bruised
While ago… Creeping in, slyly invading intimate memories! A thought forbidden…shunned out long ago, Lingering at the threshold to unlock barriers… Set to keep thy memories at bay! Youthful desires, flamboyant intrusions… All yet welcome, the tender stage’s predicament! Seen through rose tinted glasses, The pretty picture appears so endearing… A harmless, as it seems, temptation beckons my spirits! Longing to share, intimacies exchanged… Transcending spaces mental or on the bodily plane! Lust…or the heat of the moment, not knowing how to define, Love, it was not meant to be… the forces above had already planned! Now buried, the moment lost all magic…like sand slipping through my fingers, Having wrinkled and skeletal with the age’s ruthless storms!! - monsoonflower 11th March, 2011 |
And the flames burned out……
Specks of dreams spread across sleepless eyes… Washed away by glistening shimmer of a tear drop! Blinded by the shimmer, reality resembles the dream, As I wake to the thunderous storms!! Ambiguous notions over ruling sensibilities! Clouding logic, feigning ignorance, Yet… restless and anxious, The mind never at peace!! The starry eyes beginning to lose thy magic! In a world of deception…lonesome as I feel, Not a soul to turn to, nor anyone to share my dream…. Fears enveloping me, like smoke on the firewood… After the flames burned out!! - monsoonflower 3rd May, 2011 |
