    And Above The Sleep


    And by every morning after
    These endless dawnings
    Ripe, for
    I awaken again

    Restless
    How I count these final days
    O lighten came upon
    These curtains breeze
    Of oceans scenery I see
    Through

    And my breathe lapse
    Out of rhythm control
    Passing through my head
    And repeating
    Let again, regain

    Afraid, of course
    Let again, a swarm enters
    The sickened thought
    Billowing and every
    Cycle turns again

    Hold me down
    Hold me down
    Try again
    Let again
    My reason bewilder

    No more I leech
    Above your rivers thin
    Lest you have built it before
    I did not bewilder before

    Built this fountain I
    Domain of an under
    Worldly spectrum
    Twisting
    Where I see your rivers through and
    Swirling, the pillar sewers
    Of hell

    Hold me down
    Hold me down
    Try again
    Let again
    My reason bewilder

    There is an end to this bleeding
    Come emptiness and afloat
    Hop aboard the drifting
    Silently to yonder

    Eccer, hi, I'm back reading poetry here again.
    You are faithful to your style.
    It always needs to be read a number of times, your writings.
    They aren't that easy, but who wouldn't like a challenge?

    A great line I picked: "no more I leech above your rivers thin"

    A person ready to loose tension?

    Yeah this was... I don't know exactly, haha. Well I was struggling, and I thought i'd might try to make a poetry out of it. But I don't feel this anymore, might make a revision of it someday. Thanks for looking into this though!

    The great thing about poetry is that you don't have to completely 'understand' the meaning to appreciate it. This paints with subtle brushstrokes frightening landscapes on the fine line between waking and sleeping. Well, that's how I 'feel' this poem.
