--Apparition --
Rain pours outside
with uneasy percussion.
Eyelids closed,
awaiting ears
I consider the world
in darkness and silence.
Oblivious of existence,
the sudden sensation of clothing
seemed electric
as it crosses my hand.
Heavy shutters open,
and I saw
it was a vision…
Silver sashes slice the air.
Unwilling eyes
Begin to stare
Alone,
rendered helpless.
Aslave of words, I clamor
as this metamorphic radiance
masks the oblivion
that comes with daylight.
