Concerning Love

Could you love me; this mystic soul—so filled with traumas? Would you see me, as filled with fires—this storm of aloofness? I tremble to ask, as wanting eternity, with something so fleeting; those casual flings, that distant possession, always searching out fires. I see a legend, this existential, with a flair for grayness. I hear a phoenix, those ashes forming, to manifest a new woman: those anxious deaths; that courage to live; that seductive heartprint. I feel skyflame; I absorb dryrain; I’m everso close to rescue. It becomes love—this pragmatic slant, as torn by fields this chi; to rapture at pain, that inner agony, wailing out instructions: this dying man, as life to womb, a bit frantic over nothing; that child’s play, screaming obscenities, where life is motion; to harvest regrets, as never letting go, while Love dances afar. I know a name—this distant address—so casual that lethargic response; as such for cadence, this beautiful misery, as something so important. I caught a glance, and then a yawn, a then seduction; as beauty is wearisome, provoking yawns, where we cry it as deception; this method of control, to yank with violence, while tugging that lifeforce. We ballet to pain, as to exploit remnants, attracted to danger: that medium figure; that extended neck; those calves that spine that yelp; as casual love, awaiting ages, as roots prove for aesthetics. I could to cry, as reeling through guilt—this ecstatic feature; but this is crime, that furious blackmail, as love is eternal: that skipping heart; that violent volt; those seconds at peace with self; to forsake death, this immortal yearning, as becoming noble friends. I see our sun, that autumn horizon—those legs shaved that scar; to dig too deeply, this frantic spurt, as lives clash with justice; to want for terms, as terms would die, to force a broken promise: that inner piano, playing our tune, alas, that favoritism; where colors storm, as cultures rive, this schism pushing probability; as long to perish, while long to live, this paradox of fusions; to cry at lies, while raging at truths, where love could never die.
