THE RUINED ALTAR - -

it's strange, you're still waiting for me, - 
while, I've been lost since many
decades, in your immortal
love, I'm wandering
from earth 
to sky
in sustained way, I don't know, where's 
so called absolution point, the 
enigmatic darkness, and 
emerging temptress,
everywhere is 
a silence
of ruins, do not know how, still burning -
the earthen lamp, once you've lit,
though several storms have
been passed  above 
the collapsed 
altar - -
