Palette of Picturesque Pigment

Her persona is like 
a portrait 
   of picturesque perfection,
embalmed in 
  bittersweet lavender, 
unseen within depths 
of tributaries of elixir.
If only they knew 
 the chaos that flows, 
constrained in 
a confined 
  gallery of grief.
Not everyone is 
  a master painter.
Some brush with brutal 
   bruised strokes, 
provoking timeless 
streams of 
  implicit secrets,
from crimson stains 
   on ivory satin, 
where scents of juniper 
evoke phases of 
  unpredicted phenomenons, 
oblivious to chronicles 
of forsaken tales,
which hide 
  beneath barriers,
many have struggled 
to venture within.
But there is an artist 
with a 
  pastel on his palette,
that can correct 
her disfigured pigment.
He holds cryptic 
  calligraphic engravings, 
veiled behind the inflamed 
chamber of her heart.
He understands that her 
spirit drowns when 
winds are forceful.
How her 
  delicateness has 
been sleeping 
  on withered roses,
wilted by 
  cruelest rays of a 
summer 
  mourning 
     morning star,
Where bedtime stories 
were puppeteered
    by hurricanes 
feeding on 
  fenceless vulnerabilities. 
yet when 
  sleepless silence sings, 
it can disturb 
in reverberating 
heavy metal screams.
So she echoes her trauma 
through hurtful hisses,
poisoning with 
  vicious venom.
Her aura alters in 
  acrimonious attitudes
from serene sunshine 
  to furious gales.
She remains without 
a grip on untamable 
seasons of 
  unholy torture,
Only he knows the poem
in her eyes is the 
   last train home, 
so he calms her 
  tempest temperament, 
enabling hidden rainbows 
in her mind to reappear.
He is a soothing 
  gemini night-flower,
even with outcries 
of midnight thunder, 
his patience resembles 
   raining jasmine water,
   purifying 
     her murky waters,
into a crystallised milky-way 
of kyanite desires,
guiding her 
   to swirl and swoon
into 
    whirlwinds of closure.
