Tossed, and turned, hidden beyond Heaven's gate
Over shining tears falling without sound
My Love's ache, seeded and nutured by Fate
As such stars burst from midnight's coming ground

Breathless, and yet, filled by wants lost desire
Wept blossoms flourish in your garden's grow
Burning and set within forever's fire
Swept from untold winds of obsession's row

My mind, my heart, my everlasting soul
vanquished now from silence, time best left still
Searching your thoughts, today and tomorrow
for such words to release and hold at will

The wind picks up and takes me to and round
as light flows awake, for my seed I've found


Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure.   -   C. Belville 02

ME~

I sing to life
To it's tragic beauty
To pain and strife
Let all that dances through me
The rise and the fall, I lived through it all

your closing couplet was great.

i like the garden setting for this poem, it really was a great frame for the piece.
