Lighthouse As the wind swept clouds across a thoughtless mind and as wave after wave crashed upon feelings... the lighthouse stood watch a beacon for those lost at sea. And when the eyes cleared to reveal a starlit night for guidance to navigate around an impending mood... the lighthouse still stands watch a beacon for ships lost in me.

Sometimes I wish I had a light house in me. This was well done and I liked the symbolism. The last four lines were great! |

Ya know, i'm glad you said it was more than a lighthouse. Cause when I read this it was deep! I got a spiritual message out of this. Very well written! Very deep thoughts. I really like this one!!!! |
