How Could Love Hurt

Skies cast 
     a 
periwinkle 
     moodiness
shimmers 
   eyes full 
of 
   tears
gauze 
   invade 
ankles
     feet 
scarcely 
     touched
grass

Dousing 
      blazes
wearing 
      scars
as 
      medallion
& 
      memories
trophy-like
    tell me: love!
do you hurt?
      terrible 
spirits?
     sensitive is love? 
or 
      lovers are!

All stars 
     perfectly
mellifluence
     equinox 
nymphs 
     & fae
party-free
      bright 
meadows
    mystical 
fireflies
     exclaiming
love
     need touch
assuredly
    lonely
as 
     thoughts 
& deeds!

Dark 
   & gloomy
lay 
     in 
dew
    waiting 
to 
    undo
constraints
     of
firecracker
     And 
swagger
     caught
throwing 
     heart 
in her love fire.

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.
