Knowledge of your existence, robs me
As I gave chase to what appeared graspable
But now I sit, replaying mirrored images
On a phantom screen in my quiet mind
While simultaneously looking past it all
As reality dances on a harmonious thread
And like well hidden secrets in the breezes
I watched a murderous cloud slip off
Into a scarlet swirl over an aquatic horizon
Far beyond even what I might imagine
As I melted into moments of stalled time
Where I listened much more attentively
Deciphering those wandering whispers
Left behind in the wake of lost prayers
Like unknown questions seeking answers
Then I faded back into the poised shadows
That grew longer by the passing minutes
Realizing, like a refraction upon a moon
You’ll always be a mirage kind of love
Promising- but forever out of… my reach
