now ready to depart

dusk arising

 

 

taking colours she has stolen
           from out my sweetest dreams
she paints a journey
                  leading from my heart
through crowded rooms
                         and whisperings
to my waiting train stood long
                    now ready to depart


pastel shades of blue become
                     golden fields aflame
casting jewels of sheer desire
            'cross the canvas of my soul
pulse of passion clouds my sight
                  as light of reason slips
and brutal urge within creates
                    needs beyond control


the early hours reach out
               and crawl to light of dawn
where hearts lay fragile, tender
                   beneath a quilt of fear
emboldened love reassures
                   in passion now re-born
and hesitation 'ere within
              lifts her veil and disappears

    Sometimes the wait is worth it, and how many times does someone really special come into your life, and into your life at the right time too.
    Good times ahead, methinks.

    Hesitation lifting her veil is such a sheer dream of a line to read aloud
    - -- you have excelled yet again dear Dusk with this taste of love after so long alone. Must have this in my list.

    The lovely words that lace
    The beautiful emotions that weds
    Uniting at the core of hearts
    A beautiful analogy “ depart “
    What a lover shall yearn
    A greatest compliment
    The pastel shades that you use
    Strings her heart
    Soon comes the spring
    When the winter departs
    Yearning for the refreshing breeze amidst the blazing sun
    The striking words lace the poetry
    Causing a sudden stop to the chaotic hearts
    Very beautiful dear Dusk
    An endless piece of praise feels like writing for such fine art

    'beneath a quilt of fear
    emboldened love reassures
    in passion now re-born
    and hesitation 'ere within'..
    simply Beautiful imagery, what choice wording
    thank you, dear Poet

    Wow. I love this bittersweet seperation you portray. It feels so real and the colors you paint brings to the mind pictures that dance your words across the screen. Beauty.
