MISTY VAPORS





There are so many vapors between us; unsayable heart’s

Intentions that never quite condense as a love recognizable;

For so many humans, what is near is always so far away.



Spendthrift of lamentations; we short shrift ourselves to

Never allow our heart’s ruptures be given a voice and

Relegate them to inchoate misty insipient vapors.



Some of these vapors if allowed to manifest would be a

Vivified golem uttering long forgotten lamentations; others

Would be angels breathing in us a new life of soft wonders.



I would like to be a blade of grass catching a dewdrop from

Your unspoken heart than to wander in the mist of unknowing;

Maybe after so many drops I could understand your auguries.



Because of these mist, love remains such a nascent chrysalis

That even if the petals opened it would be too nascent to see;

Such mists should only exist in genie bottles holding jinns.



Let me summon you by modulating your heart’s ruptures into

A tangible and recognizable euphony; though you are a goddess

And I am not a god to be, let me be part of your ongoing symphony.
