the wells of denial

Sometimes my dreams hover over water
like old deceptions pouring
from the wells of denial

trapped in a decadent dimension,
here illusion swept away imagination
in a mist of mysterious veil

with gray, blue overtones
eternally out of focus
in darkness, edges blur

the winds of estrangement
aching for syllables
without mercy send the message

hidden in a sentence
dripping off lips
from ruby tongue

encoded echo of quiet exploitation
like amnesia desires memories
over and over it is impossibly inaccessible

Awareness ...

in search of its souls

and waters part
to form an island
for the lonely heart

I see much of my self

In this piece you write so beautifully hauntingly, inspiringly one day I wish to spend quite a time devoted to one special poem. Maybe it just might reach the level of this one, till then scribble jots and iotas is all I can do, till time frees me up to wash my emotions in cyber inks and confessions. Gorgeous piece! Highest praise.


Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS
