My heart I left buried In the sands flooring the lavender sky Where the curves of the perilous sea Lick down ether on earth.
My soul I left haunted The sunlit idyll and moonlit euphoria Of the winding streets In the city of the lavender sky;
My entirety I left lost, Swimming in the unsounded depths Of this esoteric serenity; Drowning again and again Dissolving with the current.
I am left undone Soaring through the mellow clouds Caressing that lilac sky. Indulging in the numbness of senses Amidst this salt-soaked-respite.
I have been left unmade, Unevolved, ungrown, unlived, Unlost-to be lost once more, As the force of the foaming sea On my entire being Ravages tenderly.
I find the way back no more As I am left to be nothing But the sand, the dust, The air in my lungs. The billows lurching in menace. The fallen leaves, the broken twigs, The flies buzzing incuriously. The ice melting on burning sand.
I am left to be nothing But the vast lavender sky.
