How I ...

Author's Notes: This is my first atempt at publishing a poem, please let me know what you think of it. Thanks a lot.



How I’d like to feel satisfied , at least this once .

Everything I lie my eyes upon seems to be withering .

And then I find myself unable to look out the windows of this wretched soul .

Unable to kiss the clouds , my limbs lie numb and cold on the bridges of unconsciousness .

And I can’t help but ask the still smouldering firmament if this was what I had been asking for .

The answer is easy ; or so the stars tell me .

But everything reaching through my senses seems to fade away ; a dying memory reminding me future minutes of days now passed .

But now at least I know that not only in my dearest dreams I am my worst enemy .

“Now tell us” , the trees whisper against my neck , caressing my soul .

… tell us …

For everything might rise from time to time , though ashes remain intact .


Please R&R?, thanks!
