Artemis (Sleeping Beauty)

Such a divine moment, I've lost my self control Such a divine moment Dwell before your holiest of alters I'll sell my self esteem I'll sell my soul I'll sell my honour Just one taste of you So pure, and such a rare token A dollar right in time So scarce, and such a rare beauty Stay frozen, still still, in the quiet of times When I look through, I can see you naked by the oblivious And you don't see anyone Just a reflection in a mirror of mistruths Is it too hard to ask you Sleeping beauty? We're both drunk on egos Truelly I could make it right if I wake you up Come into my world Breath Come into my world Breath But I can't help but I feel a little bit curious About your amends So glad to see you well But I have to see what is beneath the halo So glad to see you well, but my friend, is nothing What you kept behind the eyes of the spiral What you didn't keep behind the eyes of a falling spiral Now everyone has found out back to the sleeping beauty

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
