Sleeping Beauty

You’re far beyond the beauty
of the goddess Aphrodite; and yet
I held you in my arms.
Mystical moment
shared between souls
in symphonic harmony.
Solitary moment
absolute perfection,
the memory alone brings to ear
beautiful music.
The thought-vision
of this moment of peace
held captive in me forever.
Quiet calm of trust
was your heart for mine,
the pulse visible
in the sensuous
curve of your neck.
I close my eyes,
the musical timbre
of your sleeping breath
wafts once more around me
as smoke from smoldering fire.
Yet when I open my eyes
your breath is gone along
with my dreams of shared reality.
Never again
will I be pulled within
your perfect shape.
Mentally beaten
I am the
bleeding shadow
of former self.
My wounds
self-inflicted.
Once more I have pressed
the rusted nail of fear
into the arch of my foot.
Kneeling crippled
upon the broken glass
of our undoing,
and I don’t want to feel this
overwhelming self-hostility.
Can I go back,
back in time?
Back to when there was something,
something other than this
painful emptiness.
I want to go back,
return to when you were
my sleeping beauty.

I liked your poem
-------------------------------
All of us should receive a life mulligan
whereas we could redo a thing again
we then, could correct the ills of our past
when we did things in a manner 1/2 fast |
