The Beauty Of Life

By Shane

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In my dreams death is just goodnight In my room, there’s a light that glows Gloriously it shines Breaking through my windows Like me it feels alive Morning reflections are not what I’m dreaming I don’t know what I’m seeing but it can’t be believing By the time reality comes back to me, I feel relieved Sometimes even it’s a fact that even reality can deceive If life gets real, I want to take my friends And speak of what it means to be When comes the time, I’ll hold them close to me Tell they what they mean to me, tell them it’s the end When she holds my hand, It’s not the only thing touching She holds all my soul in her palm If I should die now, it would be perfect with her arm in my arm If life gets real, tell me to tell myself To take my life down from the shelf The valley where it lays Just resting for bigger days In reality I fear the sleep"Unfinished and unleashed, this is the first thing I've written in a while so don't be too harsh" Written April 18th, 2002 © on Apr 18 2002 01:27 AM PST   0 • 10
