Misty Windows
©1999 by Vanessa de Vera

Seven sacred swinging sorrows
Drained my eyes of hope and spark
Breathless night, the moon awaiting
light casts shadows on my heart
Tainted kiss and tightened fist
head pounding from this
interminable bliss
To speak the truth
Yet seek what's not
Is all the knowledge
that I got-
Romantic music seizes
as my pulse slowly decreases
fading velvet walls a caving
But the memory's worth saving..
yet without reason.
