passions more poignant pallet
sketches shadows around the soul
swimming in warmer memories
makes such sweet balmy bliss
even more so
stranger occurrences have been
known to happen though
when the moment at hand placates
love with the tenderest most beloved
kiss
suffering the great rains of the natural
saboteur
only further strengthens
ecstasy's monumental birth
where as self worth you only inflict
celebrations of shallow accomplishments
hold no appeal nor magic for me
anymore
I now would rather prefer to just stay away
as too few care for the company of an
incurable bore
leaving behind one's general disenchantment
is so difficult, disheartening and cold
not even thirty yet and life seems
monotonous some delightful ten fold...........
