Late into the night I sit Starring at the computer screen My eyes wide open Sleep isn't considered As I relish late in the day, These beautiful poems Reading each one is like an adventure Taking new twists and turns Some are surprising Others, so good I cry I wish I could stay here forever Taking in every word Reading each carefuly Comparing the poets While knowing perfectly well they can't be compared I sit here into the night Reading poetry here at the site Sleep is now considerd As my eyes close from the lulaby of all your poetry Thanks to all Passion poets who make my dreams pleasant ones!

I can agree with both comments here, and I doubt that most of us get any sleep around here! Good poem Joy! Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

LoL, describes my feelings perfectly, accept I usually dont sleep. It is now 4:14 a.m. right now and I have been on all night reading poems, enjoying each one thoroughly! Sometimes it takes all my will to pull me away! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

LOL Joy!!! I really got a "kick" out of this one!!! Jenny Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual. |
