Nightsan

by Samuel Dimafelix   Oct 26, 2009


The nights are so long for me to slip.
To escape the wrath 0f realizing me being al0ne.
shut my eyes trying not to see how helpless i am.
hide in the oblivious night
keeping the fear and enduring all the longing.
The warmth of thy body could not with stand
the trem0rs brought by the cold wind
that cradles me through the night.
vaguely keeping myself still,
i stare in nothingness,
my mind wandering in harsh memories
inflicting inconsiderable grief.
deafening it may all seem,
yet, i admit, it is a great help,
not to listen to my heartbeat
weakening every second of the night.
no one to witness such remorse,
other than my pillows,
that i whisper words out of my head without obscurity,
my blanket that wraps and shields me willingly,
and my bed,
that holds me thr0ugh the night.
should i be punished with this kind of cruelty?
must i with stand everynight struggling to make me forget?
The moon and stars could be in their greatest glow
and they will shine my path for me to forget.
as i drift into sleep.

    Hmmmm... first of yours that I've read, and I must say, I'm both impressed and intrigued. This was a very good write. It was strong in feeling, gentile in it's obscurity, and drew out some interesting imagery. All in all, and that's besides the few errors in grammer, I though it was an extemely good piece. Keep writing, and I'm sure your talent will grow, and grow, and grow.

    I loved this poem.. You describe that indescribable feeling of loneliness and the old memories that we shield ourselves in when we do feel lonely. I would never wish being alone on another person.. great job though- kayla

    I don't know if it is part of your poem or not (I's) that aren't capitalized bug me. If however it has been done on purpose than I understand.

    Also the substitution of an (o) for a (0) was a tad confusing as well.

    anyway I liked your poem and I thank you for the read.

    But remember
    'You don't write because you want to say something, you write because you've got something to say.'F Scott Fitzgerald

    thanks for the read
