The plumed sky cooed, as thoughts of things everything, you rushed… in slow motion, as the blink of your glance brushed my cheek, and the crimson cream lips you wore washed, over me dry, drinking the pain that fell from my eyes as all things that ever weren’t, born onto another melted, into steel and noise. Like a seed, on a fruitful journey supplanted, on a palm of wind these clouds of us, that climb up the ropes of sky born, of fire and flurry, they drain the first drop of flood that suffocated the rain on a desert of duration shared together from a glimpse, across a page that connects two halfs, of a smile two halfs of a whisper, two halfs of a rainbow that never met beneath, the sheets of mist. Our, earth is a heartland of love and stones and naked fingers, we can ever touch but always not have, except in that place squeezed tight where thoughts of us press out light and dreams of pearls that hug your teeth, form diamond drops inside that bleed, in white. This world is blue, for a reason. It’s dying of thirst and cannot breathe, her briny waters tears of a cosmos, that fell on her pebble frozen, in lastingess when inception was still afraid of the dim, and thought, laid idle on a silken shore of sinless, beginnings. This ocean of space of ink in waiting, for a, unity of verse to be written in the void by fates that wish, and not for prophet soothsayers of divinity, and kismet on the warmth of your purity, glistening and whole. Design is the rider of manuscripts mare, that scrawled sonnets of odyssey across the braiile, of our antiquity. As builders of nemesis built star castles out of caligraphy, abode of confusion that ate the delusion that we, would never come, that we would never get to see and appreciate, the romance of never knowing never touching, never ever even getting to see, the eyes that blind our heart to all other, because they have melded into ours now, sharing the same vision of the dream of the dream, that chose to never wake. As the raven of devoid flew through our morrow carving the caws on the sound, of our sorrow. |

What an intense reading experience, dear Richy! You are filled to the brim with universal impulses that seem to dance in your mind and are put to paper in a very special choreography. Love, Margherita ![]() |

What can I say? Now this is "romance" at its best! I trailed the page and ended on a sigh - good thing though because it means that I know. Helen |
