Order in Chaos

She sways in felicity,
rummaging and pillaging
through my mind;
her incisive words,
resound a thousand
times, before they're
enshrined deep inside.

My thoughts snatched,
soul enraptured,
I flounder about,
scathed, stunned,
looking for order
in utter chaos.

(The first line is inspired by Lord Bryon's poem 'She walks in beauty' but the theme is completely different.)

  1. I know the inspiration for this poem. Nice.
    The theme is good too. Effervescent.
