The Ache to Feel Alive

Post by Tjflowers80 » July 20th, 2015, 12:25 am

The writings on the page
The visions in my head
I feel so insane
As I lay awake in my bed.

I see it all within
Floating in my dreams
Seeking the one to begin
With the light that constantly beams.

Woe heart, do not fail me
Keep the hope though we're deprived
And know the stars can see
How we ache to feel alive.

Written in the pages deep
Somewhere between the lines
Is the will that we seek
With the sun that brightly shines.

And within those words so written
I feel it's me he's writing for
But oh heart we must not become smitten
Like all those times before.

Keep thine distance I say
Harsh and stubborn in tone and rhyme
You must walk away
To deal with your loneliness this time!
And above me the stars align
But not yet with my own
And the night birds sing
Whilst the demon haunts this restless soul.

" written in the pages deep

open to many interpretations that expand the poem infinitely

can apply to relationships, real and imagined, and to more than the interpersonal, into the realms of the philosophical....

you need not reveal your intention, ha ha....like all written words, once released to the public, interpretations up to the eyes of the beholders
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

You're right about that, interpretation is in the eye of the beholder.
And above me the stars align
But not yet with my own
And the night birds sing
Whilst the demon haunts this restless soul.
