Lantern

Come, watch the clouds with me,
tell me how they figure in the sky.
We'll disagree, deeply, together.
Come, dance in the rain with me,
We'll be voiceless and scream together,
and be out of words.
Come, inhale me...
We'll glow and fade deeply, together.
Draw me in like a firefly to the light,
to the lonely lantern,
in the lonely night.

  2. I remember I commented on someone's poem something like, "oh fuck", and declaring it to be my best way of expressing awe :D So when someone says "fucking beautiful" about something I wrote I can only smile! =D

    If I have managed to bring out even the smallest of feelings I am more than happy... it is so full of my own feelings, this poem, full to the brim... it brings a sad smile to my face seeing some of that shines through to you.
