Rest

By Darmok

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

"Rest" by Darmok 1/23/02 I search for rest beyond My sin, the ‘things’ held Too long, within. I would share with you What sustains these words, The pages filled, my quest. They are offered here, Such as they are, to be held, Even for a moment without fear. For within your eyes, and beyond What lies, the doorways in the dark. There a light shines and burns within, Loveliness, and compassion, Beats your heart! And, Should these words find their rest, The sanctuary of your breast. In quiet repose are gathered there, These words that give me rest. Written January 23rd, 2002 © on Jan 23 2002 08:44 AM PST, Darmok    0 • 12
