This exquisite pain
cannot be tamed within
it seeps through my pores
pools like acid on skin
it’s stencils are fingerprints
etched indelibly on glass
brought up to dry lips
soured wine now will pass
it sullies my vision
all sunsets bleed red
dawns dim, not brighten
to your darkness
i’m
wed
Lovely poem, expressed in beautiful words.

Exquisitely and softly laid! Became a fan! The most stunning part is that I too like to pick a particular aspect of nature and let myself drown into its beauty, each poem becoming a tribute to that little aspect. Even when words fail to capture the glorious splendor, we surely do our best as humans when we compose such tender pieces.

I feel you’ve gently, without fanfare lifted the corner of a veil covering a private dark place and allowed us a glimpse of what lies beyond. Prose of great depth, poignancy and beauty.
