Aras

When you were young,
When you were beautiful,
People listened
with captive amour
at your maniacal ravings,
rantings, cravings.
Your tepid fingers bending the soft scapes
of their flesh,
taking what didn't belong to you.

Capriciously, you gave nothing, always
lying with your yellow hair
covering the black words
leaving your lips,
Pulsing their way to
your demise.

Dead to me, years away from you
I have  traveled
and that picture of lost beauty,
yours,
motivates and carves a new
world where no lilacs bloom.
