As I Floated Through The Galaxy by Maleah Torney

Part I Soliloquy

O merula quomodo eleganti vestra pugna inter mea dormitabis Ducentia spiritum meum ad supera regna Alii mundos cum sensibilis entia inestimabili hic in terra ! O blackbird how graceful your fight amidst my slumber ! Guiding my spirit towards higher realms Others worlds with sentient beings unimaginable here on earth Caressing the silhouettes of my mind

Showering my ruined heart with the warmth of mysterious splendors Who are those women, Touching the most profoundness of my being ! As last night another wondrous encounter This nameless princess with her fair skin with her blonde hairs Whose beauty rivals any earthly queen or princess or goddess Alive or in the past ! My punishment spending hours with her in mystical romance My lips imprisoned by her soft pump womanly lips My lips kissing her body over and over again Yet, I know not her name or whence she comes Both a blessing and a curse upon my spirit Upon soul upon my mind ! For I do not remember what she looks like Expect that her beautifulness is beyond compare ! O blackbird when shall I awaken from this dream within a dream ! When shall the gods remove this veil over my eyes ! When shall this paradise this inferno in one diminish, From me and absolve me of my erroneous choices ! In this false reality of an awakened state I am cast into the depths of unbearable loneliness A vicious hurt that cuts worse than a twin blade; A cut from a knife to the flesh will heal; But; a wound to my heart never heals because: Here on earth I am unloved ! Yet, in my slumbers; in these real higher realms, I am the unwilling inheritor to the warmth to the grand loves From the most beautiful princesses across this universe, For what ! And for why ! Tell me blackbird ! For this my merciless loneliness year after year Has been my greatest chastisement; my demise; my fall; still, I have endured this with honor to my death ! Never complaining; never bitter; never vindictive; Always smiling giving freely of this infinite love that dwells in me; Comforting, inspiring, healing whomever I can, Of my own free will altruistically and perhaps to a fault, Never pulling rank nor demanding my birthright Until tonight !

O blackbird hearken onto the silence of my souls screams ! Hearken onto the cries of this poet in love ! For I am tired of crying in the darkness of the night ! I am tired of crying myself asleep; I am tired of dying every single day of this life; This incarnation; this punishment; this karma I accept, But; I shall never accept an unjust damnation For loving the woman who love me too ! O blackbird reveal the truth and nothing but the truth upon me, Come what may; I shall accept ! I shall endure ! For Hell knows no fury than this poet in love ! ! !
