Haunting Magic
The veiled moon emits
the strangest obscure light.
Silently awakening
the secret world
of my dark delights.
Yet the tide twinkles,
blinding bright,
on the ancient shore
of my mind tonight.
Mysterious memories swirl
that have haunted me before.
As a dark euphoria sedates my core.
In the center of the soul
exists a vaulted door,
where the ghosts of the heart reside.
To go inside exposes
every secret you ache to confide.
Whoever told me there is no magic
lied to my seeking, searching eyes.
The night is silent, can you hear it....
The world's dark veined ecstasies
sustain my sparkling startled spirit...
the strangest obscure light.

Your comment gave me a much needed smile.
I love ghostly, haunting, spooky, lol
The moon was obscured with a strange eery light last night.

I'm seeing growth in you as a writer, in this. You bring both the "euphoria" and "suffering" in a full circle of balance, as you weave them together throughout the direction and transition of your poem from beginning to end. How it's expressed at the end really caught my attention. It's like you're squaring the roots, if you will, and taking it to a new level of exponentiation. The brevity you use conceptually builds a new level in itself in the last five lines, where you not only summarize concisely, but add to its backstory with confident expression. Anyway, just some little things I picked up in this. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to hearing from you!

Hi! What a nice surprise.
I read everything you wrote
and was stunned, lol - I did that?!!!
I truly appreciate your knowledge of poetry
and all that you share to encourage me.
That does seem to be my driving theme many times - agony vs. ecstasy.
I'm so happy you liked it and many thanks!
