Empty

Suddenly the atmosphere’s dull and dusty surface becomes bright as if it’s the first sunrise since being overcome with darkness and passion enters regrettably. Logic overthrown in a split second. Impulse reigns once again overpowering all reason. Pure, raw emotions take a master’s touch to handle. Yet experience means nothing blinded by the tragedies of the long gone past. Life is visible at the edge but still out of one’s reach. The tips of the fingers sense the imaginary tingling. The heart starts skipping those unessential beats. The breaths so deep that only cry out in darkness surface and suffer the light. Inevitably the dwellings of the inner spaces are visible on the arched edges of closed mouths.  Not too long now till another part of the soul is lost in all this continuous confusion. Growing weaker and weaker with every passing encounter till nothing clear can be reasoned within the inner mind. Pleading against all possibilities yet powerless to pursue. Closer now.  The inevitable driving all logic after the feeble sense of belonging. Twisting that logic to overthrow sense and conquer the one thing that stands in your way.  Reminiscing dissolves passion for what is ahead. So sweet to the mind, eating away at it unknowingly. The question posed answered in time, leaving the inner demons to roam free. And so, it happens again.
