"The Shadowlands..."

I paused with "Pigtails and Blueberry Muffins" by SyberRose

I paused at SyberRose's - "Pigtails and Blueberry Muffins"

...and remembered...

“The Shadowlands…”

 

so many little daydreams

one-by-one

 

each lost the sun

and the new moon's darkness

hid the eyes,

hid the eyes...

 

I felt each heartbeat

then

and now - yet again

each heavy beat brings

memories of what it is -

to dream

to wish on falling stars

to want ...love

...still.

Beautiful poem... day and nights come with the sun and the moon, spread some light and feel the breathe of love. A shadowland's a beautiful and a very unique title to read about it. Creative lines're penned in this piece. I enjoyed reading this poem and I love your title as well. An excellent imaginary created by your in your words.

I love the notion of daydreams losing the sun. If our dreams were made of light and fire, then, they too can die out.

I feel the heaviness of the heart beating. I suppose one always wants love. In essence, always love...

needed and cared for...sigh

I could not agree more.

thank you for pausing with me

Still...nothing more important...it is the sign of hope and a desire to continue living and not just existing…I’m off to discover your inspiration…

Hi Mia, nice of you to pause

[SarahV]

Really good work here, enjoyed reading it.
Love this:
"each lost the sun
and the new moon's darkness
hid the eyes,
hid the eyes..."
Keep up the good work!

And so the heart shall always pause and dwell in those thoughts, it seems, as always, elegance and utterly stunning deliverance x

"to dream
to wish on falling stars
to want ...love
...still."

...that is the essence of our being...what would we be without it?

My best,
Kelly

A sweet feel to this poem, Chris. Being human, we all want love to be in our lives... always. Felt this one, my friend.
Hugs!

To wish on falling stars, each one reflected in a single tear.
