broken amour

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

i behold transmuted contours
a departed kindred spirit, reborn
entwined mephitic, cloaking avernus

feeling reminiscent douleurs
of fleeting euphoria, once suffused
decussate hearts inamorata
when we could be who we were

your betrayal imbued pathos
a blissful innocence perished
tender poltergeist wavering, to
iniquitous vestige of etna
ravine ruptures my soul, in
flaming waters octocorallia

magnified miasmic, profusion vitiō -
presence devours hallowed memories
furrowing thoughts no longer psephite
moments effete & halogen

‘tis a distant memory now
of forever affection, tainted panacea -
so forgive me for lacking clairvoyance
while looping joyous reveries

Sort:  

..devours hallowed memories...

and cares not with throwing joy into desolate confetti fragments
