Through the Dark

Through the Dark

A Poem by Lightfalls
"

I miss you!

"

 

 

 

Like a ship in the night,

you traveled through the mist, through the dark

….somehow drifting into my world.

 

My island, isolated at the edge of the world, somehow became a paradise of happiness.

My beacon of light shone so brightly, only for you, as though you were all there was.

 

Dancing with you, held so close, my heart was never so free. Drifting to sleep, every night was a dream, my head on your chest, close enough to feel your thoughts as mine.

 

 

 

Then somehow you were gone. Fading from my world, as the winter storms rolled in.

 

 

Tears are made of a love longed for, and crying is my soul poured out to you.

A salty ocean surrounds me, I look to the horizon and wish for you…always you.

This ache in my heart for you is as wide as the space between us.

Sadness will only leave, when you return.

 

Wherever you are, you’re in my thoughts.

Though you are far way, you’re close to my heart.

 

 

Stars always align.

Patterns of the sky are perfect beauty.

The distant sea looks calm from here.

Everything is perfect from far away.

 

 


Everything is perfect at a distance, true...

 

but my world is most beautiful when you are close.

 

 

 

 

Under the spell of midnight the stars shine brightest.

 

I hope that through the dark you find your way back to me.

Your words are simply astounding... truly magnificent in it's expression of longing and desire.

this has a wistful feel to it. Such longing...such heartache. You've captured emotion well here. 100 daisies for content...if I can make just a small suggestion though? the visual presentation matters much like the words...you may get more out of it if you format it like a poem of prose...

I'm not about being tied down and limited with words. Words are just a shadow of life anyways, and only used because they simplify things. Sometimes there are things far, far beyond words, that you .. more..
