The epithalamion is a challenging, even problematic, form today. Originally a poem to “celebrate” the bride on her way to the bridal chamber, the ancient forms were quasi-religious, ironic in this thin veiling of voyeurism and libertinism.
Here, a contemporary spin.

The masnavi is a kind of Persian narrative poetry with rhyming couplets, often with morals around Sufi mysticism, ethics, and theology. My lessons are perhaps more deconstructive illuminations.

A Lighter Step
by Crissy Bliss AddamsIf my words once carried thorns,
know they were born from bruises,
not malice.
I was still learning
how to hold my own heart
without letting it spill.If I reached for the light
and cast a shadow on you,
I’m sorry.
That was never the shape
I meant to leave behind.I’m walking softer now—
less fire, more warmth.
Less noise, more knowing.
And though I can’t rewrite the echoes,
I can choose what I carry forward.Peace, not proof.
Grace, not guilt.
A lighter step,
and a quieter bloom. -
This is my original poem, "An Unveiled Title." Beyond the existential themes, the structure itself holds a secret.

"Save The Best for Last"
A #Poem written for my partner, Hikari SeleneYou've waited for so long
While I loved others like a song
Enough verses written to fill a tome
Yet not once have I written you a poemFaithfully you've waited
Silently you've anticipated
With lips and hands pressed tight
Loving me gently like moonlightBut darling look around and see
This life of ours is my poem to thee
It's shaped by all the little choices
And rhymes with both our children's voicesA masterpiece is not composed fast
I had to save the best for last
The pieces of our hearts ring like chimes
Celebrating a love meant to last seven lifetimesI've lost track of where I end and you begin
To our generation that might seem like a sin
Let's blaspheme as two souls mix where they meet
I'll offer my prayers to the moon dust from your feetFor our love has been a mythic fairy tale
One forged like steel that's supple not frail
It's elegance woven with grace and simplicity
Into each minute since you first saw meTo you I was guided like Theseus's twine
By a crimson red ribbon with a grander design
Of a pinky promise made in case I lost my way
Silver light of night guiding towards dawning dayOnly for you can I weave all this meaning
In a way beyond the first simple reading
You alone have all the tools to decode
Because you've made my heart your abodeBefore, I could not see this poem for you
To observe it at all you need a bird's eye view
It's breadth and depth beyond simply vast
Because for you I saved the best for last -
Amber and Gold corridors
Rise and Fall
In a season's span
