Healing Embrace
Clouds of despair drifted in seamless sky of sorrow,
storm surged from the dismal horizon of mind’s visage,
showered tears in psychic streamlets in torrential flow,
like the rolling rills of raindrops on the face of foliage.
All the dark clouds didn’t dissolve in the deluge of grief,
a lone clump clasped the crushed heart in emotion deep,
like the raindrops concealed in the fold of sodden leaf,
waited within me to wail for the promises you didn’t keep.
With the emotive brine condensing agony in pail of pain,
the teardrops got poised on the eyelashes for a while.
Like the slithering raindrops the leaning leaves drain,
they slid down slowly with the dreams’ debris pile.
Down the crumbled creases of the pallid cheek,
cascaded the silent streams of soothing grace.
A touch of divine succor the mangled mind could seek
in the course of teardrops and in its healing embrace.
