Graveyard Diggers- a Frustrated Quest

LETS NOT CRY FOR THOSE WHO ARE DEAD

AS EMOTIONS ARE BURIED IN THE GRAVEYARD

LONGING FOR LOVE IS FUTILE

PALE AND FRAGILE

I WISH THOSE BLUE EYES

TO BE MINE FOREVER

ALAS ! DREAMS ARE THE ENEMIES OF DAYLIGHT

MOONLIGHT IS CONCEALING MY THOUGHTS

INSOMNIA IS GRIPPING MY VISION

WAYWARD THOUGHTS CULMINATES AS

MY LOVE POEMS ARE CHAINED IN PRISON…

Nick made a good suggestion although I feel it feels like one poem and two stanzas.

An interesting and emotional poem, I kind of felt it was two poems run into one, could have easily split it after line 6, enjoyed the read.

Bravo! Here's hoping that this year sees you find the person with the keys to unlock your prison, so both can live through an eternal night of sweet dreams.
