A Shadowless Flame


I stood there uttering “i see” in silent disdain-

lost in words and who’s to blame!

Farewell,  my friend and musical bane-

why do you have to be a shadowless flame?

Like  words from your beloved hurricane-

why does care feel like poison rain?

Your hurt and surrender to pain-

dethrone melodies that were once so tisane!

First came seclusion unraveling a kame-

then followed a silence so procaine!

This Trobaritz’s only crime was to claim

that you reside in her heart’s forebrain!

Call me a stoic for being humane-

but don’t make me wonder who’s to blame!

So sorry to see you go rattlebrain-

when all I wanted was someone to inflame!

Oh how I wish I was more urbane-

but I am who I am just a  kik nickname!

CNQT

Poetry is a form of passionate expression kindled by an impression unbound by public conviction. I write mainly from two genres : impressionism and symbolism. Choose me or leave me, I'm not a backup plan and definitely not a second choice! Not everyone likes me but then again not everyone matters. What matters is peace and the feeling of being content. Every person is a book, this is just the place to share some pages from my book. Peace!
