Mercurial

Distant, docile when coerced to a form
Yet when released a silver steely storm
Liquid love like ever sifting sands
Indecisive, flowing through my helpless hands
Racing shimmer through hungry open veins
To the heart where love will leave its stain
Fleeting quicksilver seeps deep inside
And facing revelation it retreats and hides
Rivulets snaking, so fluidly leaving
Blessed substance so lucidly deceiving
