Interlude...

I was a dark cloud of anger buffeted by winds of anguish and despair. Though no light dared touch my body, her light engulfed my soul. She radiated the beauty and elegance of a queen...the queen of rage and mystery. Illuminated I sought her more and more, the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Life. Like a cursed nightmare of temptation I would fly to her, and she would dance away from me. Soon enough the flaring fires of an illumined heart broke barriers of logic and reason. I grabbed for what I wanted then became greedy for more. Thus, the treasure slipped from my hands. Payment for my desires. She is lost to me now, it seems. Buried under sand dunes made from my blindness, carelessness, and selfishness. I was a child that played with love like a toy and now I sit and cry at my broken heap of mistakes...suffering for making the delicate suffer. So here I am, letting my soul wither and rot like leaves in Autumn. Will my heart ever yield to sweet temptation again?
