The winterchild's night
Sings sweetly at the moon
And I lay silently sleeping
With my eyes open too soon.
Too soon towards
The rising sun.
While the stars vanish
One by one.

The light bounces off
The iris in my eye
And the first tendrils of light
Fall from the sky.
Like fallen angels
With wings made of mist
I could see the souls
The spirits had kissed.

This seeming sight
Sends chills up my spine
I know this glimpse's
Not meant to be mine.
What is to be mine
Is the thought of my theft
And what life would be like
Once the light left.

Once the light left
I felt no more pain
As I slept soundly
While outside it rained.
I never even knew
My life was suddenly done
They took my soul
To the setting sun.

As the sun set
In saffron and plum
I knew my life
Was indeed done.
I did not mind
For I was with light
With delight I cried out
As I took flight.

This one was well done. I liked it.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
