You Are His Without Being
He never touched you.
Yet you linger in him
like the scent of damask rose in forgotten temples,
or the shadow of lotus petals
pressed between the pages of a life unlived.
You weren't given,
nor claimed,
but you remain
as Persephone remains between two worlds,
half spring, half surrender.
He sees you
in the gold-threaded robes of Isis,
mother of the hidden,
protector of what cannot be possessed.
You, soft as jasmine at dusk,
yet dangerous as the bloom of belladonna,
a beauty he could never hold
without trembling.
His logic is iron.
His mind, a fortress.
Yet inside,
you bloom like Freyja's garden in Asgard
wild, untamed,
known only to the gods and the ghosts
of those who once dared to love.
He remembers you
in the absence of touch
how your voice would've sounded
saying his name.
Not as a woman made of earth,
but like Aphrodite rising from seafoam,
untouchable and immortal in her effect.
He walks through the world
wearing your memory
like a garland of hyacinths—
invisible,
but fragrant enough
to undo his certainty.
He calls your name in thought
only when Hermes isn't listening.
Because you were not a prayer
you were the echo of something already sacred.
You are not his.
You were never his.
But in the sacred ache
between Odin's wisdom and Hades' restraint,
he worships what he cannot claim.
And so you became
his unseen Nemesis
not to punish,
but to remind him
that even gods must kneel
before something they cannot keep.
You are the iris that opens at midnight,
the secret grove behind his ribs,
where he returns not for peace
but to remember what almost was.
You are his
without being.

profundă, sensibilă și superb construită. Reușești să surprinzi excelent contrastul dramatic dintre încremenirea sufletească și scânteia de umanitate...

Cât de scump plătim mândria și tăcerea? Versuri pline de adevăr și înțelepciune care ating. Trist, dar atât de adevărat!

O poezie care surprinde acel moment de ruptură, când vara se stinge și lasă în loc doar umbre și nostalgie. Citesc si nu pot decât să îți admir melan...
