<i>Silver Sun</i>

Silver Sun

A Poem by Alskar

I question my absurdity in 
Questioning you. I cannot help but
To quiver and clench in 
Iron-weighted pain.
Lukewarm water stars fall
Against butter-kissed cheeks
And  my sickness only just
Resists the urge to die.
It has been long since I last
Felt this. Do not leave me
Open to the elements. It is a 
Pallid disease, as your notions are
Entirely pure. 
With each of the same sound
I bristle. I scramble to meet my 
Reflection, and purse my lips
For you to kiss. And yet,
Meet they will never do.
I must leave you impressed.
And I will leave your mind
When broad skies are neon
And the sun is silver.

Not as good as a peanut butter, banana and cucumber sandwich, but a very close 2nd.

This is ingrained in my psyche, for I feel this is not so obvious as to be of true love.

It gives me impresions of a transference in time, a passing of something in celestial origins. A natural warm light, to a more subdued light.

I truly enjoyed this piece, thank you!

Interesting. When I read this the first thing that popped into my head was Narcissus, who longed for his own reflection. Of course in another vein it could be about the narrator's desire to be the person they see in their reflection; someone far better than they really are.

Either way something about it piques my interest. I think I like it.

I really love this. For me, it seems to be all about the subtlety and and bold, unique expressions. This is fantastic.

Some very nice phrases, like }Iron-weighted pain" and "butter-kissed cheeks." Good word choices and structure.
