Left IncompleteA Poem by Alicia NicoleNow I lay me down to sleep I close my eyes filled with forbidden lure I close my mind to every thought that passes My body searches for a warmth it knows isn't there I cry in defeat of over exuberant emotions A sweet symphony of bitter sobs fills the thinning air as tears stains burn a track against innocent skin Now I lay me down to sleep
Every voice quietly flows and breaks the eerie quiet Every sound is forced to be heard Every scream bounces around The heat of a mid summers day and your arms around me tights seem to become something of forgotten lure Dreams Fantasy Wishes It kills me slowly, wrenching apart a blood-beating heart She craves beauty She craves love "Once upon a midnight dreary while I ponder weak and weary"
A silent plea rumbles past like thunder Watching as the numbers move forward Another minute lost Another memory gained Another minute toward hopes of you Another memory almost forgotten Wonders escape and fill the stars with helium A silent plea rumbles like thunder
I do love thee Like an ocean that fills the sky A ribbon colored disaster Words strung together forming another delusion © 2011 Alicia Nicole |
