If you knew what you lost



The feisty river, its obstreperous rippling shores seem content to let go:

as turbulent waters edge past the eager bending shrubs-

they just flow, endless and eternal to ends best unfathomed.

The hands, they refrain and shiver at touch;

warmth forever- a reassurance that binds the fleeing heart,

a bed of flowers: anarchic, disharmonious

yet the ethereal fragrance; the magnificence may long sustain

what one lost.

Purity- where innocence shall rest;

the austere sky keeps on wandering through forgotten lands;

until the river and bed of flowers converge, submerging conscience’s monologue:

They stay on- obscure;

one and the same.
