Glow bright, as world’s collide

Seek out the shadows of night

Covered in clouds, I cannot see

The dimming of your light

Earth has overshadowed you

Only darkness on your face

Until the sun reclaims the sky

All is not well, in outer space

Moon set slowly, do not leave

Your face, I need to see

For only you can understand

The emptiness, inside of me

Mighty eyes do pierce

As night favors the raptor

With a simple glance

In a dream, she sails

To faraway places

Hoping, at last

To find out what space is

A bag fully packed

She reaches for the sky

Balloons, shaped like planets

Will help her to fly

A billion stars fill the night

Oh! How they shine!

A little girl and her dreams

How I wish they were mine…

As she lifts the veil

Awakening morning’s light

Freedom is given

Her flocks fly hurriedly by

Before darkness reigns again

What I Seek – #poetry

I step out
Into the darkness
A passing mist
Gently brushes my skin
And dances
Across my cheek.

I dare not wipe it away,
For fear
Its magic could
Quite quickly disappear

So I let it linger,
Color the starkness
Caressing me,
I savor this wicked sin
Like a lover’s kiss,
It is what I seek.
