oblivion



drowned in spark,
oblivious of silence;
trapped in smolder
of mindless fire
sky rains diamonds

which fleetingly show their face
and fly away to another planet

"drowned", "oblivious", "trapped". . . then that opening out to "fly away to another planet": effects of being lost to love. Nice tie-in of "spark" with "diamonds".

Love’s oblivion: found in ecstasy—lost in tragedy. Such fragile steel from emotions wrought.
