Two steps ‘til sunrise... closer, warmer! The twilight fades into the light. Her sleepless phantom, tender murmur Keeps me awake. Before my sight, She heaves and casts her pale shadows Against the walls. In black and white, Survives my memory and shatters My dreams of peace with sad delight. O, gentle phantom, rest a while! The heartbeat skips within my breast. O, soothe me, calm me, and beguile The conscious feeling of unrest. O, grant me peace! Alone and lonely, I seek in you my home, my nest. In silence, lay beside me calmly And rest your head upon my chest. Check out my poetry here: http://cafepoetry.com/stage1/andrey_kneller.htm#My%20Hamlet |

Glad to see you back, Master! I'm glad to see another beautiful piece come from your pen. Keep 'em comin'!  "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde "The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief" -Shakespea |
