Burning With Time
Burning With Time

Not the shimmer of gold-leafed monuments,
Nor handsome silver outlive beauteous rhyme.
Your crystal shines, less bright in these contents,
Stoic as stone smoothened by churn of time.

Crumbling statues etched with lonely concern,
On masonry made, seem ordinary.
But with trembling sword, a quick fire did burn
Eternal record of your memory.

Eroded visions shine eternal doom,
Rising to meet lonely wanderer’s eyes.
Set forth, your praises fill a Sultan’s tomb,
Hopeful, as posterity seeks the skies.

Written on blue vault, true romantic blue,
Only time knows how my heart burns for you.


2.6.22
Sonnet
We cannot know if memorialized love will last, but look to the sky that fills with stars and mark time.
