THE BYGONE EMOTIONS

Desires, that roots inside the dark,

Unleashed the wolf, within that arc

Frowned, as it lit up inside, a spark

Crowned the moron in me, a crack

 

Those were the blues, caught in autumn

Nourished my groves, top to bottom

Breezes and sighs, soft as cotton

Rode on my dreams, now stands rotten.

 

Deep inside, I am fighting for ages

Pricks in, as I serve without wages

Savage in me, vengefully rouges

Glides across, insane, like pages

 

Heal my soul, oh lord, so pure!

Seal my thoughts, the proposed cure

Inhale more pain, the one I can’t bare

Let me just fool, my unconditioned tear.

 

Canopy of wisdom, held it loud

Bloomed beside, bright and bold

And I was cursing the one I loved

 

Ruptured illusions, bygone, I heard
