'In Broken Pieces'

The night grows deep, and a conversation ensues
I hang on tight; like a neck on a noose
She astounds with sheer naturality
a complicated mind, with sheer complexity.

Her smile, I imagined, like roses blooming
a contradiction of clouds within me; gloomy
Her eyes, like stars in the night
her mind; a complicated flock of birds taking flight.

The affairs of the heart, and the irreversible feelings
take over as I see them hover and sets me reeling
As I constantly see them in my deepest dreams
as she becomes a fragment of my whims.

And as I lay my soul to rest
memories rush in with no regrets
For fragments of memories come rushing in
in broken pieces I've never seen.
