That blooms at night in my garden.&lt;br&gt;
Radiant under the moon&lt;br&gt;
I can’t take my eyes away.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When morning comes,&lt;br&gt;
I see the petals, withered in half blossom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a little mango tree in my heart,&lt;br&gt;
Hung under the weight of fruit
that glistens in the morning dew.&lt;br&gt;
My mouth betrays my hunger.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When noon comes,&lt;br&gt;
I see the worms.&lt;br&gt;
The fruit ripened before maturity.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>These Weary Bones</title><link>https://iamgusto.art/posts/dreams-of-love/</link><pubDate>Sat, 09 Dec 2023 11:48:28 +0300</pubDate><guid>https://iamgusto.art/posts/dreams-of-love/</guid><description>&lt;h3 id="1"&gt;1&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your icy words drop like rain,&lt;br&gt;
your sneers grind my bones to dust -&lt;br&gt;
wingless thoughts drown between silences.&lt;br&gt;
Your eyes reflect back an overgrown boy&lt;br&gt;
they are the pit my pride goes to die.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="2"&gt;2&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I promise you I’ll come alive again,&lt;br&gt;
And these bones will dance, and the flesh shall be strengthened.&lt;br&gt;
And you shall see my smile as you’ve never yet seen it&lt;br&gt;
Strong and radiant with tears bursting out&lt;br&gt;
Alive in the shadows, and in the light&lt;br&gt;
Dancing for the Lord, for his life for his light&lt;br&gt;
For its radiance in all of you.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
