While You'Re Sleeping Poem by catty Alonzo

While You'Re Sleeping

Rating: 5.0


You are lying there and I am here in a world
I dared not to invite you in.

You are closing your eyes while my eye lids
are not dropping down.

Your unconsciousness freed me while my
consciousness eats me.

All the sighs are mine alone to keep while
a breathing coming in and out is yours in
your sleep.

Your sleeping image suddenly dawns
upon me like a ray of light that broke
through the clouds.

A shiver down my spine draw my very being,
guilt opened my eyes.

I wish you are the one who is here with me
and not this stranger who is lying on my bed.

This I like very much, Cat>>>You capture the reader via fine flecks of pictorials and subtle language that turns glaring, in the end.The difference between a decent poem & a very good one is the Poet's ability not only to take the Reader to the Poem, but to enrapture them within the poem...you have succeeded in doing that, here'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''{ F j R }
