“Starlight Serenade” The snow falls down Gently sweeping to the earth A hard winter wind cuts through me But I hardly notice it My gaze is fixed upon the heavens Trying to see the stars Through the snow and the clouds From whence it came Buts it’s of no use They sky remains the same As the snow comes down More quickly then before Shrouding my view even more The winds come again Piercing at my very heart I think of you And how much like that wind you are Invisible, untouchable Yet you went out of your way To hurt my heart, or so its seems I turn the corner Letting the wind flow by And with it all thoughts of you Once more I turn my gaze towards the heavens Hoping once more to see Some sign of starlight Shining through the night But alas the clouds grew darker And the snow became denser I sigh Moving on Keeping mind To stay out of the wind Through the darkened alleys And forgotten paths of the wold I wander Always looking upward hoping to see A shining star held within the darkened night But always finding the clouds and the snow More impenetrable then before So I move on Not quite knowing Where it is I’m headed Stooping here and there To rest along the way So that I may see the starlight Shining down from the sky above Like a beacon guiding me home Taking me away from you And to the arms of another To a place where I may find true love But this is only another Of my worthless dreams Yet it is the only thing That keeps me going on So I move through This eternal blackened night Searching for the sound of light To play upon my heart Shining down from the heavens In the form of a shining star From the highest parts of heaven To replace this wintry hell With a summers twilight With but a note of its beautiful song I have heard its song From deep within my dreams Pushing me onward To the very edge of this world And beyond In a useless quest To find the other piece of me To find true loves resting-place Beyond the savage refuse of the wasteland Many a time I tried to turn back Telling myself That I would never find the one Of which the stars sang of in my dreams But I am lulled by its sweet tones And trudge onward Through this wretched realm Moving onward Only because of the hope Held within my fragile dreams In hope of finding the one Who stand within the light Of that shining star So that I may be complete And forever hear The beautiful sound Of the starlight’s serenade. |

I can relate to your words, and it's always a good thing when I can actually say been there done that..I think everyone is on that same quest..and sometimes I feel like I'll never find it because it's like I'm in search of the Holy grail..but nontheless good job.. ![]() Kristen |

A long write....I don't usually read long ones...(YEs, I'm THAT lazy..lol) but for some darling lil reason I continued...Glad I did too...I must say I rather liked it...Could use a few critiques, yes, but what poem couldn't? Share Jesa, Stroke Jesa, Pet Jesa, Love Jesa. |

I like it. It is very powerful. ![]() I give a whole new meaning to the word 'sad.' |
