Night Flower

It looms under the absence of sun    
unbudded, unfertilized  
to wake lonely in this midnight portal.    
    
There is no relief from loneliness    
for the fairest plant delighting in darkness    
erupting futile pollens    
amongst crowded mindstreams.    
   
Wanderers in rooms of unknowing    
unravel experience    
spotlighting terminal fears.    
   
Night appears full of eager blooms    
unseen, unfelt, undetected    
where belief held in suspension    
carries senseless ways,    
marries empty days.    
   
A petal falls,    
wishful, hopeful.
