A Suffocating Pause

firebrushed hues streak untamed
a fading sunset as a suffocating pause
in the gentle constant of you
shatters clumsily the whole
of my waking heart
luna dusts a lover’s tear
upon a lackluster sky
and I surrender myself
to the confessions of your soul

sweet mystery silently succumbs
to bewilderment wherein drinks
are flavored with 3 ams
and questions and my thirst
for answers is never quite quenched

beneath the cool break
of today’s autumn dawn
reflections of endless nights
roughly paint my landscape

some things were never meant
to be understood but
within the crimson cloud
of broken pieces swirling
as my heart fights desperately
to remain intact, omissions
and half truths
spill imbued condensation

and I sit here beneath
a rogue stroked dawn
denying the vapor rising
refusing to believe a
a storm pregnant with
all the fragments
of my heart is inevitably
going to bring
one hell of a hard rain
