Eyes Closed Shut

After thirteen years time embeds The cutting knife in deepened said Twisted in torque in my wreaked abyss Eyes closed shut, could be my wish Maybe I'll awaken in a different world Where nobody hears, because nobodies heard The bleak in me from cobalt to black Eyes closed shut, there will be no lack And upon the out, where I'll drift with time Knowing I've decided to leave ones prime No roaming in the gloaming, no more pain Eyes closed shut, never to open again http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/dark-9.php

Happy weekend and thank you for sharing your wonderful poetry with us once again James. I am going to try and write some entries for the contests this weekend also. It is still so hot and humid here but we might get some relief next week. Wishing you a weekend filled with joy and inspiration. Love, Carol
