Perfume of the light purging the sight - Poem

Perfume of light is purging the sight
Black and white
In all bright.

I sit at the shore sulking with worries
I see the sun in shades, sinking into the sea

Perfume of light is purging the sight
Black and white
In all bright

In the whirl of identities

I fought for piece
Talking about peace

In the swirl of sentiments,
I became a warrior
Worrying not about what to come.

Warts and all has the whizzing violence in me

Perfume of light is purging the sight
Black and white
all in bright

O Sea, set me free!
Here I write what I want to let it go
Take it away. Far away.
Bring me not the burden I leave you

Take it away. Far away.

Perfume of light is purging the sight
Black and white
In all bright.


Veteran writes the words wobbling on the sand,

Waves take away, veering back the water,

Sea never returned what it took from him.

The world doesn't know what the water never returned to veteran

The world doesn't know what veteran left to the water into deep.

"War and Violence" were what the veteran left, leaving the shore.

Perfume of light purged the sight
Black and white doesn't make everything alright.
