SOLITARY CONFINEMENT
Sparkling facade of love,
Fiery fire from burning emotions
Toggled by feelings of want
Ghastly impulsive but real.
Clouds of dark rainfalls;
Hologram to the winters-fall
From the shadow comes a horizon
Dancing amidst the rainbow’s zone.
Beauty has met with glamour
Twisting tornadoes of colors
Infused with pleasant pleasures
Like a bunch of roses–treasures.
Hearts swerving in the abundance of emotions
Choking, yet a strong sense of devotion
Mild and charming with deep sensations
A touch from heaven above.
Living a life so sweet and sensual
Yet, a cruelty to all its beholders,
Like a poisonous arrow, it pierces through
Through the heart of the impetuous
The cravings of a lonely heart
The want of a solitary man
Expressed on the shore of emotions
And washed away by feelings confinement.
