A mystical poem that makes you think

But hush now, and let s drift into this night,

Through dreamless sleep to comfort your troubled mind,

Cut loose your tongue and let your heart take flight

 

Think of what is and not what might,

You’re not alone, tomorrow is close you will find,

But hush now, and let us drift into this night.

 

Yes, the end will come, but not yet, not tonight,

Let’s not talk of the end, to that be blind,

Cut loose your tongue and let your heart take flight.

 

Let your thoughts be of morning, to its dawn so bright,

Release your tears, put your fears behind,

But hush now, and let us drift into this night.

 

Let us dream of songs unsung, the colour of twilight,

Tomorrow wee talk of what troubles your mind,

Cut loose your tongue and let your heart take flight.

 

Let us rest upon the thoughts of this quiet night,

And take to your sleep my words so kind,

But hush now, and let us drift into this night,

Cut loose your tongue and let your heart take flight.

AARRRRGGGGG, CURSE YOU, CURSE YOU AND YOUR ABILITY TO WRITE POETRY SO FLUENTLY AND BEAUTIFULLY IN THIS FORMAT. *lunges hands at imagined neck, but draws them back with a pained chuckle after crushing them on the computer screen* Sorry, the id gained control over my ego for a second.

Wow, love the poem, can't think of much to say beyond that it is great. (my id is still in control of sophisticated functions) your artwork is incredible, as far as I know, your writing is incredible. If only you were a teacher 2 I'll try and come back after you have more than two stories.Well back in the day...I was a teacher...*sigh*

Morgan: Hey there! A friend and I were reading and, although we have different ways of saying it, this was a beautiful poem. I love the depth and the mystery that the ending lines create- sort of leave the mind open.
Kristy: The poem was really peaceful and it was enjoyable; i like the flow.

:-) Karl 'Angel' Lines replies: "Thank you both"

Mm, I love it... And I honestly don't know quite what else to say... I like the repetition of course. That's what makes it special I think. You have different lines all coming back to that same one... But I hate feeling the longing that these sorts of poems create in me... So bah. ~Laughs~hehe evil huh

Aw, it's so nice! And it's rhyming... I'm no good at rhymes. I'm trying but it never gets quite right all the way! Anyway it's really nice and have a calm atmosphere. I like it! Goodnight! 2Glad you like it

Well, I am not all up for poems, but that one is pretty good for someone who thinks he can't write. (in other words i like it)
