Eternal Empty Sleep

by Razel Davies

In light of going,
To dark beyond.
The difference,
Seems clear.

Solitudes arm,
And emptiness hold.
Her breathe,
On my skin,
Lost for evermore.

To sleep,
In lonely dreams.
Eternal rest,
Her heart,
Awake in,
Distant beat.

Deep, enigmatic, powerful. The three stanzas seem perfect as if a bridge from nowherte to nowhere, and in the center the lost breath. Through it all the "distant beat" tabla like. The three word title matches the stanzas. Unforgetable poem at the edge of (precious) being.
