Moment to Moment
Tormented again in the moment;
Nothing remains forever,
Lingers thoughts in pain.
Leaves flown all over
In the dust some remain,
Tormented again and again.
Tormented again in ecstasy;
Strings strummed in pain,
Every beat breaks the body
Rises over and over again
Tormented again with beats;
Every step a story to tell,
Every arch reaches the sky,
The fingers sing the song of knell.
Brows shoot the arrows of love
Caught again in the mesh it dove
Tormented again and again.
Tormented again in rituals of yore;
Again they come, again they tore.
Streamers of heart, Confetti shower
Wet in tears under the bower.
Tormented again, here they stand-
The world revolves in the loveless band.
The whirlwind blows, creates the tempest
In she dives, a blur of wind.
Tormented again here they stand.
