The Cosmos Turns Wild (In A Dream)

Rating: 5.0


into the night sky
gazing up at the shining pearls
at my balcony in peace i lay
as my thoughts in the night unfurls

staring at the world far far away
adorned by the stars was the night
i explored the sky, heart filled with joy
as my eyes travelled distances infinite

the night was dark but not the stars
they shone like the gems in the sky
and at the earth, there were songs from the bugs
in background i heard some owls cry

alone I was in a solitary night
soon i was talking to the stars
each one of them was my childhood friend
face of the moon marked with some scars


thereupon i saw a falling star
that broke the silence of the night
night was getting dark and dim
and the sky spoke of his plight


and soon the sky was no longer the same
as the stars started to disappear
what saw my eye, only made me insane
and darkness not the only fear


still staring at the sky black
my true friends they were all gone
consumed alive by the forces dark
the end of the world had come

a funeral in the night of the immortal stars
i had seen in front of my eye
night was a widow, without her pearls
and the moon i could hear him cry

soon i could see my parents around
all hope lost in their eye
for they knew, our time had come
it was raining death from sky

soon those forces would come to earth
they would rip us all apart
with broken words I tried to tell
I spoke all from my heart

what it meant for me to have
someone like you always around
i could sense my moving lips
but lost was all my sound

and as the world ends in peace tonight
there be no soul left alone
in your arms, gladly i would die
and none is left to mourn

and as the world ends in peace tonight there be no soul left alone in your arms, gladly i would die and none is left to mourn................... A beautiful end................ ]] I am glad that this nocturnal scene was a dream That fades away, scorched by sun's bright gleam...... But deathly figures that dance about, and in your visions frighteningly loom, Towards the judgement that awaits, we humans go, into the arms of ending doom................................ .............................A lovely write my friend, a 10 for u.......

The dark sky and its hidden things make fine subjects for poetry and Kanav`s eyes and mind have captured a few of them brilliantly... Here is a reflection of it... A fine write.
