Iced Sunshine.

Heterochromia
Blue and green
At odds, mismatched
Together but blind

Offbeat
But with the beat

Flickering sunlight
Untold stories
Withering silken
Love in soft fur

Surreptiously
Slithering
In sunshine
Till I see

The eyes
In the ice
The golden glare
Of the glaring disguise

Teetering
and toppled
Tethered
And teased

Shuffled
Wrung out
Tweezed
And freed

Psychedelic sanity
In sunshine shade
Suede skin
Silver stares

Fantastic swagger
Swaggering flair
Flaring love
Naked and bare

Throbbing longing
For
A united dream
All undreamed

A satiny blur
Far away
Away for long in a
Stormy night.

That cold, distant
Glaring disguise.

  1. I didn't get the poem. Care to explain?
    Sorry for sounding dumb but poems were never my strong point.

    I think the meaning of the poem is different for everyone.. and I guess it's not even remotely same for two people, unlike how we're taught at school :(
    But to put it in a few words, for me it's about the grandness of love, being different and then finally and.. sadly, giving up.

    Thank you.. I hadn't tried writing with the effect this poem is written in, ever. And I'm glad it turned out all right. Didn't think I could work with orchestrated words and wondered if they would end up displaying the actual feelings..

    Thank you for the insight and again.. for subscribing :)
    None of my poems have been called "poetic" before and I know they weren't. Thanks for the comment.. I'm glad my poems are finally growing up :D
