To The Ground

A cremation to a beautiful truth

The brilliant taste of afternoon
still lingers between my lips.
I love the way the sun did shine
and reflect off your delicate eyes.

A peaceful birth, blooming like a flower
and love did fall like a feather to the ground.
Doves flew above our heads.
Faithful innocence painted the sky with clouds.

I will remember that day
and cherish it's every moment.
I will always love you
and the place that we once met:

glistening windows and elevating joyfulness,
home to a very happy haze.
I revisit this place, hoping to revisit your face
but find dread and a miserable longing.

I will always remember you fondly,
but I wouldn't mind watching
this place burn to the ground

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Your imagery was on point. … Smooth and seductive.

[Kaa Na Kalyanasundaram]

Very nice writing. Good wishes.

[Distant horizons]

Beautifully heartfelt words.

[Wondering Mind]

Love can be extreme to this point of wishing destruction to what reminds one of it once that love is beyond our reach... Nice use of words.
