The winterchild's night Sings sweetly at the moon And I lay silently sleeping With my eyes open too soon. Too soon towards The rising sun. While the stars vanish One by one. The light bounces off The iris in my eye And the first tendrils of light Fall from the sky. Like fallen angels With wings made of mist I could see the souls The spirits had kissed. This seeming sight Sends chills up my spine I know this glimpse's Not meant to be mine. What is to be mine Is the thought of my theft And what life would be like Once the light left. Once the light left I felt no more pain As I slept soundly While outside it rained. I never even knew My life was suddenly done They took my soul To the setting sun. As the sun set In saffron and plum I knew my life Was indeed done. I did not mind For I was with light With delight I cried out As I took flight. "If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that i was made for another world." |

this will probably be my last poem i'm posting... for the rest of the week (maybe month). I feel there is still much to be learned...plus there's exams! "If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that i was made for another world." |

This one is written very well, it read smoothly for me and was really good. Nice job "Be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle" Plato. |

This one was well done. I liked it. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

This is really beautiful. I loved your images of the sun. "so when at times the mob is swayed to carry praise or blame too far, we may choose something like a star" --Frost |
