Restless thoughts turn back, and forth
tiring by mind, adding a burden to my vision.
I try to keep my eyes lifted, and ajar,
but the mental bench presses
do not improve the physique of my thinking.

It all then seems useless,
and I submitt to the yellow grains
dwindling unto the puddles in my head.
The ripple effect that it creates,
swirls me into a valley of confusion.

The vegetation of this place seems
to convey my thoughts, and emotions.
I am lead to a forest of "weeping Willows",
and "concerned Carnations".

Then I glance at a cluster of four petaled roses
that start at " she loves me", and ends in "she loves me not".
The wind whispers those same words,
which sends a terrifying chill up my spine.
I quickly turn back, only to find a blury image
of my princess in the fog,
fading away in the same wind,
revealing the full moon on that gloomy night.

Peace. Love. Forgiveness.
  Blessings and Guidance

Jonathan,
Talent must be your middle name,
for this poem, is overflowing with it,
Complex....intrigues me

Usage Note: The introduction of the verb intrigue to mean "to arouse the interest or curiosity..LOL

My dear Gifted, at my age, I surely know who I am, so I can write a true eulogy for myself
and waiting to be judged.
