COMPOSING LIFE

 I kept myself, from the wonders I didn't know Drenched myself, by the thunders in the snow With every leading step, I was reminded to be slow I was run over, by the secrets that I kept Bleeding every ounce, my tears also wept Thorned by the feathers, my winged feet slept I rose up early, by the cries of my soul Screeching out the voice, emptying the echoed hole Dropped down low, reminding of my body's role I slept till again, for eternity did sleep Wishing me the wonders, embedding the mark of my every weep

 The night calls me by my name, yet I mistook it for the dark Burried under the sheets, Scared, praying for a spark I rose up with the sun, Slept before the moon My eyes dread the nights, even before the noon All that I could see, I chose not to Shut my eyes tight, hearing murmurs a few I heard her crying, my eyes had to see Looking upon the night, I never knew it would be As I glimpsed through my dark, I finally had the sight My senses had betrayed me, for the night was my spark Oh, the moon had me blinded but I can finally see You are no moon or the moonlight, you are the night you can be I see you through my emptiness, my heart aches and dries Never have I ever, been able to hear your cries Do not ever cry, as the moonlight wets your face I see you as the night, but I also see your fears You need not be afraid, for I will let you cry My ears might be senseless, but my heart surely hears For I will let you cry, only if they're happy tears
