Nocturne Opus 9 Number 1

This hasn't quite worked, so I'll have to revisit it. I listened to Chopin Opus 9 number 1 for inspiration and got lots of sprawling thoughts. I tried to put them into a Rondeau Redoublé format and possibly ruined it. I think it needs free verse but I felt lost between rhyme and what hasn't seemed to naturally form as free verse immediately. The basic of the experience of listening to the music was that I got thoughts of a dance of momentary euphoria that was embarked upon with the full knowledge that everything would always pale thereafter and this moment would be fleeting. rough notes unfinished free verse version Heaven awaits me, fleetingly Captured in your sight I came alive To resist costs too much Ever forward tiny steps In this dance To the edge I twirl in euphoria And may fall Beckoned into the twists and turns And knowingly entering this dream With you at my fingertips I know how this ends Allow me, take me there to relinquish myself To the moment in time For a moment with you I'll give my forevers For this moment I know the cost The sawing of emotion From willingness to dread Willing for the moment I carefully tread So careful but these steps I do not control So I must lie to myself I can't run away, compelled forward I can glide until consciousness Overwhelms me One day will be the last Footsteps into darkness Not knowing where to head Overlaid burden That I taste before I see That I feel before I admit Give me time Tranquil time Take away the everlasting thought I'll trudge for eternity You and I will collide In the eventuality of existence And I commit to the dance Of my forevers Leading me back to you I came alive held in your sight Never knowing which way to head Every step towards you feels right Dampen down thoughts of looming dread Euphoria tempts steps I tread Aware the cost, eternal night Ever willing, never mislead I came alive held in your sight The lure of you, I cannot fight A dance with you a golden thread You are destiny, I alight Never knowing which way to head Dance with feelings, words left unsaid Inevitably shadowed blight Empty forevers lay ahead Every step towards you feels right Unmarred moment, though know finite Tangible yearning to embed To chase you is to chase moonlight Dampen down thoughts of looming dread I could never have turned and fled This was written in stone outright I always knew where this path lead Time remaining, please expedite I came alive
