Capturing Visions

Oh, how we wished to capture visions
 drink love from altars
where we shared those nights
 so sweet.
To chase away
those hours
when heartbreak regarded our affection
from places deeper than days
 that could not  
look inside our needs.

The rain knows how we tenderly searched
for sun lying dormant
 when nothing said goodbye
Even though
we welcomed hands building walls
around our Troy
Neither of us could see our own faces
or recognize
the heart we should know
before our own eyes.

A strong poem. The use of Troy in the poem left me with questions. The walls were strong. But could be broken in by secret and con.

Thank you for a excellent poem.

Breathlessly sensual and stirring echoes of memory and want. A poem that explores many ideas in a few lines. Doesn't get much better.

Envisioning a vision is often a tricky thing. What we see is not what it seems and what it seems is not what we see often! Great poem!

You always portray images so well, the words seem to dance of the page. "where we shared those nights so sweet." Truly a great write.
