Blankly, the darkness is empty.
Swallows quivering saints at sea
Lies are not enough to steer
the contempt and lonely me
Provoked by the tender moon
I stare at the wide night
So many stars the twinkle there
Silently, mysteriously in sight
As I lay awake beside the trees
Sleep is moments away
I wish that I could stay
All of eternity and a day
This poem is one of the best I have ever read. Your tempo is much like my own which makes your poems easier for Me to follow. I very much liked the last 4 lines of this poem. Seriously you are amazing writer. So far I have gone through several and have not found one I haven't liked. :)
