Urgh this is no good but tell me what you think it's just free verse type of thing...I know I can always rework it eventually...so many thoughts but so little time:P

Lastnight I found myself wandering
Amongst the graveyard in my mind
What brought me there, I have no clue
Perhaps was it something to do with you?
I felt no emotion nor any fear
Only because I felt you so near
You were there to guide me through the night
And the only one to ease away any fright
The only spirits I saw before me
Lay beneath the mossy grass
I came across an old tombstone
Erroded with mud and weather beaten
I read it outloud in my mind
And then and there I felt my soul forever lost in time
These words will forever be branded in my mind:

My little child
You have been forever lost in time
But here lies what you have always been seeking to find
Don't be afraid never bury your feelings
The one who has brought you here will forever be by your side
You shall always find it deep within his eyes
And the angels will always forever be your guide...

"Let me be the one you call, if you jump I'll break your fall, lift you up and fly away with you into the night"

This is a poem with a lot of interesting images in it.  it gives the reader food for thought, which is always a good thing.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

I liked this one. Very well written and I thought it was great.
Hope to see more

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

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
