Sleepwalker

Sleepwalk
where do you go in sleepwalk
with your eyes open only to the moonlight,
in this place at midnight?

Sleepwalk
why do you go there in sleepwalk
to torment your soul, place your life in harrow
in streets oh so narrow?

I need
to put right what is wrong
put right this affliction you've suffered so long,
I need
if only that to find
forever a way to free your cyclone mind.

We need
honey a place in time to talk
i have done you wrong of that i regret
please forgive and forget...

Beat+Message=Awesome poem! The idea of a 'cyclone mind' shows the urgency that is needed to combat reality and smoothen rocky parts. Lovely poem Harry! (I like that you noted the intro - that's precision).

Harry, I like this one even better than the other sleepwalk poem. I think because it is more concise for me. I never listened to this sleepwalk song yet. I really need to do that before the contest disappears forever. Always feel like I have no time and Sleepwalk was a contest I had hoped to try. gosh, Harry, you can't always reply to me? What is that all about? Is it mostly with the older poems? Well, I am happy to have seen this lovely poem of yours today. luv, andrea
