Like two forgotten fragments of the universe:     
Sometimes, life is just lacking- in realness
A missed voice, touch, or innocent kisses 
Needing more than a memory worth of infusion 
And so, when we indulge out of selfishness 
We embrace the falsity of a strange kindness
That we gift to ourselves, through others 
Tagging along childishly with the night of stars 
Whilst the moon displays her romantic melody
Quickly captivating our sense of human desire  
She had seen me, for what I too seen in her 
We both knew to seize opportune moment
Share of ourselves openly without reservation 
For now, they’ve become so sparse with time  
Twas merely an excused infatuation in motion
That we had chosen to surrender to passion 
Knowing all too well, laughter would become
A fleeting sound of echoes off in a far distance
Our talk of love, merely overspent currency  
And morning’s dawn would rebreak our hearts
Returning us back to an unwanted reality 
Diverging from one another’s arms and life
The way night and morning do so … naturally

Published by Poet of the Light

I'm the aberrational poet your English teacher warned you not to read or follow into the literary abyss. If you steal my poetry...I will find you in between fogyish metaphoric lines. I'll be armed with my quill and papyrus where at will I can wield my power as a writer to erase you from my realm. I will smudge you with inky darkness and do unprintable things like a ghost in imaginary darkness. In full disclosure, I am absurdly mad and take no responsibility for my actions if crossed poetically. But, otherwise, I’m a simple free spirited poetic writer wordsmithing outside the grammatical lines and rules. An easy going romantic rebel at heart. I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone as a friend until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with others, like-minded artists, or writers. Thank you for reading, commenting and your visit. I appreciate all the feedback (good or bad) you care to offer. Feel free to reach out by email for private exchanges if you wish.
