lament
flowering lament
the boundaries have dissolved
and music ceaselessly plays
held captive by your gaze
I have become a moth to flame
with nothing left to say
I am melting in this moment
slowly fading in your haze
embrace me
in your arms
and let me escape
…..
inspired by one of the most moving compositions I have heard : Lament by Jacaszek
fragmented lament
warm forehead
smeared ashes
tipping
on the edge of insanity
slow destruction
utter chaos
swirl
in beautiful symphony
flowering
from wounds
your words, your face
and unspeakable agony
between these lines
nothing
no nothing
but your legacy
forever inscribed
in red ink
…..
art by Michał Mozolewski
rufescent gaze
how beautifully strange
is stealing of flaming glances
with your beloved –
intoxication suffuses
from each pore
when those eyes dawn over you
time, space, sounds vanish
forgetfulness embraces
the world crumbles away
each sigh, every lament
all prayers answered
tenfold
in the opening of hearts
enough is not enough
a sweet blossoming death
in every exchange
