[Miss Murder]

A poem by Lycian Wolfe.

This may or may not be my last poem that I post on KHI, most likely the latter. But I allowed the poetry thread to die, and figured I might as well post a seperate thread solely for this poem.

Without further adieu, I present, not likely my best poem but one that I have grown to like, "Dreaming".

Dreaming

In the wake of this eve
I see the place I must leave
Its blood red skies and gray ground
Memories all lying in a mound.

Memories of a gleaming city
Please tell me I’m dreaming; such a pity
You went off, though I don’t cry
I want to join you, but I won’t die

Tell me I’m dreaming now
Now I wonder exactly how
Sitting in a snow ridden cemetery,
All these tell tale stones before me.

The town is so very cold
Though our hearts won’t grow old
I see you in reflections forevermore
But I can’t be dreaming, nevermore.

When I needed you most, you returned
And in your presence, I’ve learned
Learned to feel again, to love
Dancing with you, light as a dove.

We will make the leap together
Soaring in the crescent forever
Its light shining down before us
In a dream world is where they’ll find us.

Now singing sweet lullabies
Your figure before me when I open my eyes
I fight to escape what I know
I’ll think of you when I see snow

Rain falls all around as you think of me
And I thank you for letting me see
Seeing the truth behind the lies
The lies that for so long clouded my eyes

Because I would die for you
Now I know you would die for me too
But we are together again, I see the meaning
And for once, I’m not dreaming.

CnC. Thanks.

Yeah, in my opinion, this isn't my best, but it's better than some I've written in the past.
