Twilight Wishes

by

Vision

Candle light wishes drip,
innocently pouring from my lips,
like preminitions.
Entrancing visions slip
through the cracks of my heavy mind,
seemingly endless.
These are the times when I
worship the starlight, because I
feel so at home in the night.
I release my tension
and relax my eyes in the shadows
of the twilight.
The dwindling horizon cries out to me,
yet I merely smile
at the fading sunlight.
My sparkling eyes brighten
to the ensuing darkside
and I shine on the inside.
Each of my numbed senses are brushed
with relief as my essence is painted
by hands of peace.
And, my emotions are mixed
into sweet dreams as I drift
ever so slowly to sleep.
I quiver with impatience as I rise,
preying so slowly
with each breath that I take.
To my nocturnal heaven I say:
take me not away,
not in such haste.
So I may see the twilight again,
my friend, please allow me to see
the dawn once again.

Thoughts In Smoke

by

Vision

Today
I journey to such an unhappy place.

While
Acid rain soaked deeply into my face.

I
Was caught in the wake of tragedy's kiss.

Thought
Somehow that I could be stronger than this.

Of
Hard times I am harshly forced to reminisce.

You
People of misfortune burned to become forgotten ones.

I
Tear my soul away for leaving all of you here.

Shed
Tears for all I could do was move on and disappear.

A
War of rage births this cold reality.

Tear
Trickles from the sky and cascades over me.

Forgive
My sins please anyone and carry me away.

All
My silent wishes are begging to be set free.

My
Body quivers from the freezing of the sadness.
