      Incandescent Love

I walk...unfrequented ways
(where flowers sing
   their silent songs)
with the scent of music
   too deeply felt,
and the pain of every
   moment dying
(that shall not come again),
past a broken chapel
where sterile ‘gods’
   are sleeping
mid sunbeams tumbling
   in the dust.
As I’ve grown old and tired
   of this roaming world,
(which mixes mud and sapphires
   in sad, relentless dreams)
I seek...only to make
one last covenant with time,
that I shall not drown
in the depths of wasted words,
until I burn but once....
with an incandescent Love,
when the rose and flame
become one!
