The dramatic heights of loveliness,
Caressed the soft waves of her hair;
A potent intoxication
Suspended reality in the air.
An hypnotic high; so mellow,
Burnished through enamored eyes.
Mournful tones though, now resound,
In guttural wrenching cries.
The ebb and flow of a peculiar fate;
A world turned on its axis once more.
Those fruits, once thought so delicious,
Are spoiled - rotten to the core.
She had dared to pierce that taut red skin,
Seeking juicy delights beneath,
But neither zing nor sweetness whetted her lips;
An odious pungency caught her teeth.
That wily fervour, from her past
Could not be arrested forever.
Seized by a love; never mutually roused,
Not then, not now – not ever.

I liked parts of... but honestly... maybe if you don't pay attention to the rhyme it will be much more direct
The Outsider
------------
There is strange and
beauteous darkness in the arbour.
Birds are warbling outside,
bees are murmuring.
I'm not musing anything today.
But they keep coming and
they are.
isn't it?
