Metempsychosis

Its about resurrection from a heart break......but doesn't end with 'moving on..

I surrendered to silence

And to my vacant mortality!

Atrophy was my incubus dream, conscious in harmony

I wanted to ascend again, from the grave?

 

I remembered the fallen, the slain

Their dust was my groundwork.

And I considered their suffering and ache

For therein lied a new creation.

I wanted to exercise

New configurations and hues

Over the fragile ores of fading youth

God prearranged the days of evolution.

 

Silent stones of granite crayons

Enveloped now in sacred dew

Sleek somber words of restless desires

Of Resurrection, of reincarnation.

I wanted to feel the spirit of humanity

In mortal time that flowered still

I wanted to feel poetry in transcendent light

Of brief afternoons that did not give us closure.

Of how we are singular before God

And as united as seeds of sand, under water

Multiplying ourselves in creation's artifice

I wanted to experiment with

Living and loving and finding my true self.

As because of the wild drizzling,

Baffled sight had bricked up an unkempt Image of mirror,

I was loosing myself,

Illusion had subdued my every gesture and 

Incarcerated me in the deceptive room.

I was perceptive when my image loomed,

Hailing from the dark clouds 

arose an ocean, as the resurrection!

Apparent Elements were incredulously varying from their Inceptions,Illusion was betraying my sight with its elusive reflection.

Life allowed me to glimpse the past but not the fortune,

so the shred of ocean was dwindled away

into clouds to indulge the term of evaporation,

but the clouds couldn't emulate it 

but those were reflected in the ocean,

I was clung by the lingering past.

Inside the shared Veracity of poetry

The voice and the language of scriptures

The retention of my poetic forms

You may have never read, the devoted songs

But even in the after-time of wispy voids

I chose you, and I sought you alone.
