What do I need
to lit a smile
across
a dark heart?
An Everest of emotions
erupting exquisitely-
unearthing the artefacts
of broken memories
buried beneath
bewilderment.
Life is a road-
long and lonely
it seems.
What stirs bliss?
Lucid lips to kiss
or a soul to miss?
Purple poem;
Subtle pills,
Glow like Madonna’s grills.
Robust river
of euphoria
Rippling
aesthetically in euphoria.
