A light in the dark. (I found you)

This was written a few years ago, it was I think, my first actual poem. Whereas my other writing, I had always viewed as lyrics.

I found you

In the dead of this night

By the failing moonlight

I caught a whisper that spoke of you

In the dreams of the dead 

By the dreamers of death 

I captured a smile

That reminded me of you 

 

This place can feel so dark

But there is always a piece of you 

Here to keep me company

So the smile never really leaves

My face 

 

In the shadows

By the old crumbling walls

Where even the light won’t dare to go 

I found some words that fell from your lips 

So, so long ago

 

In the fires that keep no heat

By the liars chair where the evil sleep 

I set free a stolen kiss of yours

 

This place can feel so dark

But there is always a piece of you 

Here to keep me company

So the smile never really leaves

My face 

 

Through the sharpest thorns

Guarded by razor words 

I found a secret kept by you

 

At the edge of the world

Where seas drop like tears fall

I saved a memory

That I forgot of you

 

This place can feel so dark

But there is always a piece of you 

Here to keep me company

So the smile never really leaves

My face 

 

At the end of my wits 

Before the final fall 

I took all the parts 

And put them together like an old jigsaw

Sealed with a kiss that spoke of my last breathe

I looked inside the mix,

And I found you
