I Impale My Soul To The Winds Sublime

Fierce, the fresh earth,
A vacant sanctuary
In the Master's hand.
Far beyond the ephemeral.
A requiem echoes,
Bygones, too late,
Chasing passivity
Like stormed proclivity,
Rising heat
A rising seat
A rising fleet,
Within a broken beat.

I bow my head and woo the stars.

Forgiven gardens failed to till,
Mystic raindrops
Disregarded until
I cast a rainbow upon a dream
Of unforgotten lies I've seen.
Onto a forest of wanton woes
Alas, I've grown
A pardon grows.

Presence of unlikelihood,
Devotion, kinship - all that's good.
A heart bound tightly
Cannot be shared
Until its freedom, it's light declared.
Brilliant bliss, a night remiss
Taste the mourning of an unborn kiss,
Unspent euphoria, unconscious bliss.

I bow my head and bless the Source.

Sworn upon a villainous niche,
Shadows still hover far over reach
Solemn, like surrender,
Supreme, like divinity.
Bathed within a fertility kiss,
And the gift of an ancient fist.

I bow my head, caressed by the answers I wished.

Severance to a subject sworn
A moment beats a thought unborn.
Delight in softness,
Eyes divine
Falling unto us
A life unsigned

I impale my soul to the winds sublime.

Anyone who wishes to write rhyming poetry should read the wonder of this poem. As stated, it's not nauseating or annoying or forced, something I fear most rhyming poetry is. The flow is incredible as are the images, and at times, it read like a prayer. Beautiful work! I commend your talent and thank you for sharing this. :)

An interesting feel I got of this work, kind of like ethereal razorblades.
The imagery is almost whimsical in it's romantisism, yet the disjointed sentence structure and one line breaks stopped it reading like a daydream.

PS I too don't have any formal training, so this could all be bollocks.
