YESTERDAYS NEST Softly comes the kiss of dawn Upon a sleeping nest Darkness is by gold light torn Forlorn it must disperse Creatures waking dazed and hazy Raised by day from rest In the moon excused by lazy Pleased when dreams impress Through golden mist the real unfolds Behold another day The peaceful nest is truth untold Colder are its ways All around a swarming cloud Louder is its hum Consuming all yet always proud Shrouded, shielded, numb Soon evenings kiss returns the mist Twisted truth escapes Creatures seek a docile bliss Ignorant of fate Stars that glistened in the skies Disguised by blackened cloud The ravaged victim’s silent cries The lies of true and proud Darkness is forever soon Moon and sun are past Death now lives in life’s room Creatures didn’t last |

Once again, very nice! It has a nice flow to it We spend our whole lives trying to live, only to realize that we don’t know what life is truly about until it is too late. |
