A Rigorous Hindsight (DNR)

written by: Zen

@simplyzen80

Uncompromising like a precious stone
A ruby in the rough
Raw and independent of her temporality
Self-centered a priority
An inside out pulsation
An inverted trepidation
Of opportunity complicit
In her barely visible glare
While she craves for the explicit
Notions of questioned values
& protested in the name of love

But panic aligns her with freedom
& faith has no place here
So it vanishes into stardust
A diminishing sparkle
In the deep waters of unexplored
Matter
