Long starry night



Long starry night, to hold on, but you, there seems none

As i pass in your eyes, timeless and without whispers

A ray of moonlight, escapes the darkened closed drapes

Enlightened you, the altar, in a long starry night

Deep in your eyes, i felt the seasons change faces

In long dreamless night, a mere thought might you be

And the bells of Pyotr screamed your name in eternity

And those poor amber lips reflected all of your pain

I witnessed creation as confined as a tear

The winds of oblivion failed to bring forth

A single smile, for the restless, this starry night hides

One smile, for the patient, for tomorrow’s sleepless night

About this poem

A sleepless night where the beaty of life was projected in the face of an unconditional love
