Cathartic Spring


The fall lays bare in its enclave
Its sighs are muted by the thrashing waves
Spring has set to swirl
For once more
the darkness in frenzied throes
Around the temple of twilight
Once again zephyr rakes up
the hay of gore
And the sun tears up
the clouds of scented flowers
till oceans slurp the drops of musk
Finding that instant
when Change marks the moments
 I too have offered my self
My carcass, my words and my breath
to keep the flame high
to keep your alluring silence alive
 Would then Spring turn to my fall?
Would I be able to gain the Paradise I once lost?
