To Never Close My Eyes Again

To never close my eyes again Whispers call out silent forests of slumbering trees wave weary branches on the wind Voiceless in the vast darkness, still shadows dwell midst motionless thoughts gathering in a blurred clearing Where I seek you, not in part, pieces not in dreams but complete before my longing view So that my visions enchant beyond any imagination, fading the whispers, enacting this affection held forever To never close my eyes again Good night Soupers

Soft and sensual. An excellent piece which is 'Soulliphylic'.... My soul dances to your lines. Great page

I so love this poem, and the fact that Lorca inspired you to write this, I am always inspired by both Lorca and yourself, two wonderful talents, and your poem here is only small proof of that :)
