First poem in a while


Attic of Lost Time


In the depths of despair am I
When love and affection go awry
Where in the essence of care
Did we take the errant faux pas

I stare at the wooden sepulcher
Of emotions petrified as a sculpture
Where the medusa of our souls carved
A deathly caricature of what once was love

It seems we never had a sense
Of what our actions consequence
Meant in grand passions funeral pyre
Even in the wildness of our desire

Rummaging through my attic of lost time
I find sentience of experiences combine
Elements of scraps and pieces of scuttled
Experiences to one common shuffle

On the other end of sadness alive
I see a heart reach out and forgive
For our destructive run away souls
Waltzed to a slowing calmness upheld
