The flowers
smell of love-potion
Coming from those flames
Silently burning
In the hidden stories
Burnt and spilt in
Distorted memories.
Enraptured desires
In obsession with the dark
Creeps and crawls
And flows from the eyes,
Wanting to possess
The sane mind.

"...wanting to possess the sane mind..." I really love the way you ended the poem. It feels like you brought it to a perfect conclusion. I feel like every writer can relate to it. We all do this to capture a sane mind to keep it going everyday. LOL. Great work!

DeleteMmmm. You have me thinking of love potion now. :-) Floral, intoxicating, poetic love potion.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fine inspiration from your words!
Thanks much Julie. :)
DeleteWhat is great about this is that I can't figure out if the obsession is in the mind or in the flowers. I think I know, but I have to really concentrate to answer that. Bravo.
