Eclipse

A thought clenched by an evening breeze,
Entangled and captured as I breathe.
Turbulent rings of fire crunch: they devour,
Squander and seethe within the hour.

I know no longer whom to believe,
Dreams bedevil my cognisance as they deceive,
Cheat and envelop restraining my power.
One last try, only to turn me sour.

Eerie shadows descend upon the twilight,
The eclipse on a blue moon extirpates my sight.
A static, humble soul benumbed by umbrae,
Blown away, the zephyr lets out a sigh.

Surging upon the shore, comber contrite.
Paint and ink run, turning into black mist night,
No one will attest, for it prevails in your eye,
It’s only a lifetime staring up at the sky.
