Of Moments Luminous

What bulbs burning in the darkness
when the mind lives on lightning
until it flashes and flurries
through the volts of fantasy
where thoughts have energy
and ideas ignite so powerfully.

One touch that star in the head
can radiate visions to amazing
like they shoot from within
to explode in the sky,
revealing such incredible sights.

How sad are the lives
who dwell in their own nights,
move and stumble on slumbering strolls,
give and take in questions and groans,
but never feel a dawn in their hearts.

It’s the sad storm of inner torment
where you can hear the sounds of laughter,
are unable to feel the warmth
of what inspires such vivid expressions.

Doesn’t take a single step
for walking on paths of candles
that were made from insight’s wax,
each is lit by some match
carried in the creativity.

Those flames can burn such life
in the cracks and fissures of one’s heart,
truly give joys and hopes
once we pause long enough
so those seconds of lamination
because a sun for our day.
