One Night and Forever

by EpithetPoet   Feb 14, 2006


Stars in my eyes
Wounds on my chest
Lay me to sleep
Lay me to rest

Scars i can feel you
Welling under my skin
Just waiting for the moment
I start it again

Suppress my tears
Let my fight another day
But I'm just so tired...
What else can i say?

Just close my stars
And let me sleep
Just one night...
That's all i need...

    What an incredible mood. The piece's powerfull serene ambiance, it just gushes like a flame - yet burning so still, that it never flicks or chymes out of its flow.

    This poems powerful satisfying birth of being laid to rest ... it trips on the tips of your tongue, and glides down - like comfort to all the fear and anxiety.

    Its so simple, and its message quivers up and down the spine. As the stars dim to the closing of the windows around them ... her soul; all the poet desires is one night ... thats all thats needed...

    Its like not sleeping, but writing within a dream.

    5/5
