Cherished In the Word

I Gaze at the night and black rivers flow by, till a nebula falls and I let out a sigh Delving so deep In the wonders of space, is a peaceful way to create an escape Soaring the wind and feeling a storm, in a cyclone of want I cruise to free-form Writing my heart into each stroke, whispering secrets till my voice croaks Scrawling emotions I lay them in verse, cruising through memory I sometimes submerse When anger shoots fire from the end of my pen, the earth starts to tremble and quakes till the end When sorrow blows eddies through the halls of my heart, I weep with my hand as my world falls apart As the whippoorwill blowing across oceans and streams, Trans-morphing the night into fantastical dreams I’ve tentatively reached to show you my mind, and in opening my heart each line was defined These Words and phrases I send through time, with a passion that flames and a touch of my rhyme Till heavens doors swing open for me, I write whats inside in flight I am free
