just so you know, i didn't write this...my boyfriend did. i just wanted to see what you all thought of it....

For far too long you have sat there
gazing at the nothingness inhabiting that wall
Perhaps the reason lies in fact that you sit there
staring out of the window to your side watching
Taking in such divine benevolence
Of the whispers of the starlight beaming
Off your face it strikes
enchanting your countenance with mood
Onward still you would stare
challenging the mighty sun
as she rises and falls
Through the day, you take nature in
with a gleam piercing through your smile
thinking
The rains come and go
storms attempting to scare you away, from your place
Unflinching, unquenched you gaze
and it will be many days yet before I realize your slumber
Even then I will deny that you are old enough
that you cannot sleep for too much longer now
Only then, I will stop, and go to you
and the dawn breaks on your face, I know,
you are resting for your final time.

This was an eerie read...and I like eerie...but not sure if I got the intent...but I felt like I was watching someone, who was waiting for death...but do invite your boyfriend to join as a member...this was interesting and thoughtful.
