I survived

patience , persistence , never giving up

Secretive, crying melody is crawling to my veins

A frantic feeling is wrapping around my heart 

Shivered, trembled, lost in wonder

Time packed his hours and flew to the unknown

Baffling air is striding and shrugging his shoulders

Blurring clouds are halting, imprisoning the threads of recognition

Rippling waves are sailing from my shores 

The vacant house is wrecked 

The dusty pages are burned 

The windows of fate are opened

I glanced from the ruins and winked to the wild blue yonder

I love the contrast of the last line to the rest of the poem. Your images are really rich and vivid. This was my favorite line and image:

Time packed his hours and flew to the unknown

And we're all wondering where he went.
