I wouldn’t have lusted
for your limbs
softened with
iron syllables.
I wouldn’t have lusted
for your shiny dark eyes
like the sea
lit by two moons…
We could wake up
to what we were…
You
breathing the air of
another planet…
basking in an estranged sun…
When winds
herald the evening
the stirs are in the
dunes
and the communal
place of storms.
I
braved a lackless sea
for naught
My kisses tell you
of another small
and drifting planet
where water
falls from the sky
and blows away
the ink of dusky clouds.
The sands tug
at my feet
and quarrel like ghosts
dervishing
blindly in the whirlwinds….
There is a hole
in the world
where you stood
brazenly stealing
the burnishing silver
of two Moons.
Yet you continue
to hurtle constellations at me.
You fumbled for Orion
and you stumbled
as I inhabit
my spell-forged star
to enhance
blandly
the clear lights of greener planets.
Oh, how I miss my autumn roses!
They carry the pungent smell
of sea and decay
to your world of
liquid sands
and honey torpors.
My finitude and fragility
are yours
The heart you melted
drips down with
dews of late
that put the sands
forever in my soul.
I have a sieve
that sifts
grains from dusts.
They heat and burn
my skin
like thousand cerulean touches
that freed me
from the toils
of lingering moons.
I will love you
for a hundred years of Blue
and for the handsomest years
of Grey and sand Yellow
that will follow.
“Writing is an Iron Tale, must be tough and sincere to the core of human perception of pain as valor. I am the grumpy T-Rex who started writing out of pain, not because of a polished world. Writing out of love is painless and herbivore. As we sometimes taste blood, ours or others’. Nevertheless, some words are so expensive that we are better left with them unspoken or write them with the ink of a Ghost…” She is a teacher, small entrepreneur and cyclist.
unreal beauty, what magical language and imagery. Love this Iulia!!!!
