effloresce

 

 

 

to
effloresce

as once before…

in lieu of
perennial wishes

…and dreaming
whilst penning whispers


is


to
truly unfold

ne’er masking these sighs
with color

as now
and always
I'm sure

Author's Note

Writing Exercise instructions were:
You are aware that something is missing in your life. It's what you remember just when you think everything is going so well. Give this emptiness a shape. Write about it.

This is simply beautiful. I love how the lines and words are spaced out, almost as if they are whisps of a cloud or mist or something. o= Great job!
