dancing upon waves
coral keys do serenade

elegant silhouettes

He motivated them live
      within there confinements,

parts of their jigsaw lost.

                        But he was dying inside

I have looked in the reflection of self, so many versions
I have seen reflected upon this tapestry of illusions.

I have never seen the self that is portrayed on this portrait,
I have lingered in the brushstrokes that are eloquently hidden.

I have been damaged like a crack that is never seen within,
I have tried to be strong but I'm lingering in a false reflection.

I'm collapsing within a void less sunset of disputes
that were once bright as those in the nights sky.

But now are dimming upon the sunrise of eventual
failings, subduing the emotions that get absorbed.

Can we ever escape the pull of our collapsing intentions
that were bright, but now pull us into oblivions grasp.

Beauty woven within a blossom of elegant
                                                              spines,
fevered upon landscapes of humidity.
Treasures of the
                       desert locked within ,
moistures lingering within a sealed prison

I cried in to a vase of flowers to let them blossom
in my pain and they flourished continually.

Pain
        is
           life

In the tears that fall, stories blossom of our struggles,
but we are petals that descend into a vase of continual droplets.

The riptide of emotions were pulling me beneath
the crest of his eyes, I swam above them.

But never near the shoreline of emotion, I drowned
within the sand that was swallowed within the coastline

Collecting seashells of echoes of what had past,
depleted of voices collecting past misgivings on the waves.
