Then
by Rebecca LinStill firefly
in the night sky
You could see her glowing eyes,
reflecting wonder
and majesty.
Then you could see
the magenta stains
scattered among
the grass
and reeds.
Your body in flames,
like the scarlet sky
when she cried
crystal droplets.
Then you were drowning
and your eyes looked up this time.
She was beautiful, don't you see?
Don't you see...
The path ahead was rocky
and you scorned him...
you didn't want to go on...
but she was there,
there with you,
remaining in ruin.
Await on golden cliffs,
she'll go after you.
He'll stop her.
The whales would swim.
You dropped, then,
but you could've stayed with her
like him. 03/28/2006 Author's Note: I was watching a show and wrote this o.o

So many senses and emotions were used in this poem. I, too, wonder what show you were watching. Beautifully done. Congratulations on your POTD. |
