The words fell to dust.

I itch to wish desperate moments away.
In dreams my touch renders everything strong,
absolute,  unlike this weary existence that falls,
softly.
My attention seems to be revolving
around belligerent abhorrence.
I can’t understand it.  Maybe I chose this
pathetic rendition of a muse distraught.  
The trials of woe have caught my tears and
bonded earthly visions into
streaming soliloquies.  

I can’t name
the horror which roughen hues upon
a door.  
A glowing rubric emblazes an
elaborate fallacy, mingling the irony of    
presumption and time
revealing.                                
s l i p p i n g
Numb deliriums adorn chapels draped
with the ghosts of hollow trees.

Iridescent shadows strain to chase
and delight in the memories of sight.
Nothing can replace this. No time will do justice to the glory
Of grace dispersed.  This poem can’t explain the
Emptiness,
  For wind blows enigmatical in all manners
unknown.
Poems can’t justify the
sorrows of wind
Blowing through caverns

Gone tomorrow, hollow.

they may not justify them, but they may certainly soothe them, providing a balm. They may help make some kind of sense of them ironing out misunderstandings, bringing clarity to cause and victory to combatting them.

Quite a poem...these feelings have been displayed well within your weavings.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I do agree with you, of course; i think writing is among the grandest mediums to express and give merit to feelings.  Sometimes though... it's overwhelming.

Thank You !

O' to be delivered from the realm of the rational into pure song...
