emotion parallax

by Laura Doom

ad nauseam i hear you
resounding
in declamation
bitter-sweet vibrations
echoed gnomics murmur
on cultured currents

a wraith rises
then circles
to plummet
like breathlessness
of inspiration
one heart beats
as another admits defeat

already you have passed
through temporal vacuity
abreaction of actions
a legacy of acerbic behaviour
designed to denature
enzymes of doubt

febrile flight
of familiar flame
marking virgin soil
across the divide
from humility's pride
to a promised landing
in the bay of peers

segregated in sleep
our parallel dreams
define confluence
and where pathways meet
in the light of darkness
there is no going back

I like how open this is. I can apply these words to my own ideas, and so can anyone else. Well done.

I agree with the above, very well done.
