In the darkness of the night

Sometimes within ourselves comes everlasting peace..

In the darkness of the night
I search for you
My hands feeling the walls
Of your mind.

Your thoughts
I softly touch
Flooding them with everlasting light
Let them carry you I say.

Along the path of moments of peace
To sanction, surreal dreams
Wonder of all tomorrows
Take away your deepest sorrows.

Softly I sooth you..
Caressing your inner memory
Of a simple moment in time
Captured of the utmost joy.

'Remember'
I softly whisper.

Like a breeze
I am.

Feel me move past you?
Within you?

The flames softly flickering
In your thoughts.

Of me
Of peace
Dreams of treasured thoughts
Distant music of far-away lands.

Hear it,
Playing softly?
Over and over again
Soothing your every senses.

Listen..

Ahhh, yes...
Close your eyes
Let it gently caress the darkness around.

Oh the sweetness it brings...

Play on..

Play on..

Yes...

In the darkness of the night
I search for you.

My hands feeling the walls
Of your mind.

Delving into the depths of a dream/meditation deeper than can be possible when the eyes are open is a desire many have. To see deeper than words can describe, speaking to them through the heart of the soul while the senses are caressed and lovingly explored...this is heaven.

Nicely written Magdelena.

Tate sent me a Request and I'm glad he did. Amazing, the imagery thought provoking with a double edge sword meaning this poem could be read with several different visualizations. Love it!!!

I extend my gratitude to Tate for sending me this read request for I am filled with utter delight upon the reading. The lines...
"Softly I sooth you..
Caressing your inner memory
Of a simple moment in time
Captured of the utmost joy."
...quenched my parched spirit and leaves me wanting to read more of your enchanting work.
