Relinquished - The Autumns

And dim the lamplight

Flame unlit carries

Away my late fright

The fire gone out

Flame dance diminished

With dawn approaching

Our hour unfinished

Illuminating glitters of a star-kissed morning

Her song of rest

Drops of dew are now forming

So dismal yet delightful

Dreary and frightful

Her song is insightful

Put me at ease

I’ve tasted her words

Bitter on my tongue

I’ve twisted her words

In poetry unsung

Whisper those thoughts

Heard and implored

Let your voice string out

Chord upon chord

An enlightening presence inviting and pure

What can she mean

Her chatter unsure
