    Exclamation The Night's Curse

    The Night's Curse

    by mazHur

    The demon of night
    descends from the sky,
    voracious as ever,
    to devour my soul,
    the soul of a separated lover;
    my earthly frame
    sunk in pitch darkness
    peeving helplessly
    at my fate,
    hoping for the sun to rise
    and the gladiators of its radiance
    extricate my lonely soul
    from the night's curse.

    Wow, that was very powerful!
    Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty

    yes, the brooding thought of the departed lover: a curse.
    I hope it's all well, tonight...

    Sounds like the legend of Lilith? It's quite interesting-- as she, not Eve, was the first woman in Judeo-Christian legend (though not in the Bible.)

    You have I believe written many beautiful poems and all of them are really moving.

    It seems you are very sensitive to the environment and everything you come across.

    “Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””

    “If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.

    yep! your guess is right,,,I feel everything ,,,
    but against the saying by Martin Luther jr. ,you have a good eye for seeing stars
    not only in darkness but also when they are hidden ,,,Tibetan magic perhaps!

    thanks for your kind appreciation
    cheers !
