Watch Over Me

Contributed by blackfire9786 on Wednesday, 20th August 2003 @ 12:05:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

The stars come out
I watch them shine
I lay underneath them
Listening to their song all night
I listen to their story
Of other worlds of old
The story of creation
Of wisdom and knowledge untold.
The specks of light in the sky
They’re so much more
They’re infinity, the one thing you can count on
They’re something to reach for.
I know I sound a little crazy
Maybe just a little desperate
But every night I lay there
Wishing for someone with whom to share it.
Because every night I lay there
And dream of other places and things
For a while forgetting the life I lead
For a while no worries about anything
For a while I can just be by myself with me.
Of all the things in this world
Stars are the only thing
That at the end of the day, you know for sure
They will be there, waiting.
The world is so unpredictable
But the stars have stability
Though your husband may leave you, your house may burn down
But you know the stars will always be.
So I lay in my bed and say a little prayer
Before I go to sleep
Through the tears of a broken life
I pray the stars watch over me.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
