Colour in Gray

inspired from a song by Seal

 

 

 

 

 

She gazes in determination

Through lights that surround

Mirror magnifying

Trail's sophistication...

Single sunbeam lazars

Bank of clouds...

Elemental romance

Solitary yet united with...

 

Earth

Air
Fire

Water 

 

Aphrodite's Secret

Becomes self-induced

Labour...

Somewhat...

Strange the feel

As she hears

Gray Dove cry

Iridescent rainbow of

Release...

 

Would he leave if she should fall?

See her light

Through the waning moon?

Kiss...

 

Champagne shadows

Of soft Doe eye

Smudges

Understanding life is choice

Pure love succeeds
That which is spoken

Energy Bound
Though Fantasy resists...

 

Love

Protection

Comfort

 

Strong fingertips

Gently heal lacerations

Subtlety probe 
Lost golden brown tresses

A past broken

Dreams omnipotent

Reach the sky

Emerging from...

 

The Power...

The Pleasure...

The Pain...

 

Of wanting a Ghost

So deeply passionate and intense as someone reaches for memories past for comfort today till life can be found again, at least that is what I find in this wonderful piece, I been there and can relate to it... love the structure for the breaks give it that emotional depth. as always though your are brilliant.

[Chloe..Across the Unive..]

Soooo beautiful. The power, the pleasure, the pain .. of wanting a ghost.
This is such a passionate poem and the use of mythic goddess adds to its charm.
Beautiful as a rainbow.. maybe more so.

Read again... and was moved again by the desire... intricately woven tapestry of longing threaded through your words. Sensual and rich, you create a vision of love and desire. Beautiful form and flow... haunting...

oh but this trickles in such imagery i was not expecting the ending ...ii loved it...along with the title and the font...it was a sarcastic jab at the obvious and usual....but you took it completly different and i was a sucker all along

I really enjoyed your piece, Apollonia...especially after reading it through once, then reading the "Kiss From a Rose" lyrics, then re-reading your poem. I like this line particularly: "...Champagne shadows...Of soft Doe eye...Smudges..." I also really like your attention to visual appeal and presentation, using font color to accentuate your words. Wonderful work, as always!

AWESOME, The picture is amazing and I love the colors. This flows so smoothly, and the imagery is wonderful (for want of a better word)... It's romantic yet sad, it's spellbinding. My favorite part was "The Power, The Pleasure, The pain........Of Wanting A Ghost", Bravo, absolutly awesome. Am looking forward to reading more of your writing soon. Congratulations on such an amazing piece. ;)
