NewA Poem by ashleydawnI shed my day clothes And adorn the silk nightgown, hung off the lamp The smooth material hugging My adolescent, no yet so womanly curves As I slip into the covers Quietly, to not awaken the rest of the house The aches and troubles of the day roll off me Slowly relaxing my body, sinking me deeper Until there is nothing left but my Slow beating heart and my soul Both pulsing, drawing me nearer To a place only known to me in the deep of the night Where the violins rise, and the waves They ebb and they flow as a melody sings out sweetly, softly The charcoal dirties my face as the portrait forms Graphite mixing with the sweat on my fingertips And the noise, oh it’s so loud there But, I like it It’s a beautiful mess of chaos And only after making my nightly stop May I sleep © 2010 ashleydawnAuthor's Note
