Lost At The Altar Of

lost at the altar of
your clouds
as in a dream

far gone I stray
above the rooftops of
late changing leaves;

it leans on the heart
with a trace of sadness
almost monumental-
but I'm at play
under the staircase
in your opal storehouse.

you're too roseate in
your dilemmas-
odd-coloured, shifting

caravan my song
I'm leaving your
violet shadows

on the sands

I'm leaving
hoping that you won't
see the

glare from my lost
mirrors scattered

everywhere
