The burden of lament # 2

In sweet dreams She comes to me

Drinks the music from my eyes

And lets her petals of breath

Fall upon my soul.

I once again feel loved,

Once again I want to

believe

 

But then,

Everything fades away

And I found myself awakened

At the crumbling pillars of my heaven

Remembering,

That I was born within

The arms of pathless darkness

And baptized in Angels’ tears...

 

In sweet dreams She comes to me

And from the core of the tangled silence

I hear a calling that mesmerizes me

The luminous smell of sensuous syllables,

Uttered in evaporated whispers

that are nestling upon the edge

Of her flower-like lips.

I once again want to feel,

Once again I want to

Love

 

But then,

The hereditary fragrance of Omen

Descends from the crowd of black stars

Oozes through my existence

And I know

Everything I ever dream of

Is mine,

Mine but

All alone...

damn this is me...i want to feel that love...i have cast aside the past demons to jump in and believe...and then that darkness creeps back in...the doubt, fragrance of bad omen...

and i have backed off, thinking i am just destined to go into autumn alone on my own falling leaf.

"damn this is me..." This truly saddens me dear Jacob... Your replies always touches me.. and often find myself thinking how great would be to sit down with you face to face and talk about life.. Thank you for reading me....

Such beautiful sadness-it makes me ache with tender longing. The constant torment of those doubts, demons, and pain always threatening your sanity, your future chances for happiness... But the heart knows... it sees... it hopes.... it loves....the next to last stanza is my absolute favorite part.. Absolutely stunning.... It took my breath away... sometimes, we just have to take that leap.. Easier to fight demons with two of you as a team than alone... :)
I LOVED this..
