"aurous" poems
My greatest love turned everything he touched to gold. From the stars in the sky to the glimmer in his eyes, everything seemed gilded by his fingertips. A power so strong it could penetrate skin and bone all the way to the cusp of my heart. And for once in my life, death couldn't whisper past the aurous shield around my heart & my blood felt replaced by fairy dust. All it took were his lips on mine to make me feel like wildfire. I was a burning bush of all his desires and endeavours. And my flames consumed him as much as it consumed me. The warmth I managed to radiate from the effortless hum of his voice hypnotized every nerve ending in my body and he got so caught up in this masterpiece that he ended up lost in my eyes the same way I got lost in his. Sooner or later, we were both running blind trying to find the finish line towards stability. We jumped through hoops and burned down bridges, sacrificing our sanities for the approval of each other. Yet in the end, the finish line promised nothing but broken promises. Piece by piece we cut away at the golden kingdom we created, cut away at ourselves, hoping a little karma could win us something constant. With no avail, we came out shattered, almost unrecognizable. My greatest love sold his soul so I could have mine, oblivious to the fact that I had done the same. gd

Love is blind.
My heart is a deserted isle Distress lines its marooned shore A fleet of pneumas that reckoned they'd find What they'd been hunting for. But your treasure plans were lying There's zilch aurous beneath my sand Don't brook the sea persuade you That it's benigner on my land. You might be a habile matelot With nothing but the pristine aim But i have stoushed so many corsairs That you now all appear the same. So take heed of my fanal Even combers burst on my rocks There's a rationale not a lone ship Has made it to my docks. And i wish i could render cover From those squall billows in my sky Because you've not made it aground But you should know, neither have i.
