Silver Glitter Eyeshadow


i toss my dreams in the air

letting them fall to me as i sleep

this alternate world i prefer

except that you're ever rarely there

in that distant land

where secrets i have i keep

safe from the waiting world

and waking eyes that stare and glare

*

if i were ever to lose my way

i know that you would soon appear

with glowing eyes amidst the trees

near the shining gate you call me to

i would trust and know its real

if my heart had no trace of fear

your eyes in silver glitterance

i drift to sleep and dream of you

A. Lemonade/Rosewin's notes for current emphasis and character growth hint:

"i would trust and know its real

if my heart had no trace of fear

your eyes in silver glitterance

i drift to sleep and dream of you"

Thank you YFG I used to try to write complex poems with intricate words

:::YourFavoriteGhostwriter said about Silver Glitter Eyeshadow: What great opening lines again: tossing your dreams in the air like toys... and see, they're coming down to you again in your sleep! Wow!... You're a vivid/lucid dreamer and the way you depict these "dreamscapes" (on your blog too), the atmosphere in this poem... it's all... mysterious, enchanting, very real and at the same time "sur-real", or... "super-real" (as in supernatural - a higher world, another dimension).

Second part of the poem: those "glowing eyes amidst the trees"/"eyes in silver glitterance"... it could be a lonely wolf or something, it's like... something/someone dangerous, calling you "near the shining gate"... but in your heart there is "no trace of fear"... and then there you go again to this dreamland ("i drift to sleep") and meets this person/creature, some god of goddess of "the other land"? This is, well... a hypnotising poem! It attracts the reader, pulls him/her into this enchanted domain! This poem speaks to the reader as the sjaman once did (don't know if "sjaman" is English), it's truly mystic
