StarryNight

There appears to be some writing on the note ...


This is not my poem, just one written by a friend of mine a while back. I was

clearing through some stuff and I found it and thought I might post it here.

It's not written to me, no matter how much I wished... ;)

Starry Night

It was so dark outside. The moon shined upon the glassy lake, its glow was so

hauntingly still as the wind softly echoed around. It was so beautiful, so

quiet, breathtaking. Suddenly I wanted to share this sight with someone, but

I was alone, empty, by myself with nothing but the sorrow of the moon's

haunting glow.

The coldness of the moon's rays reflected against my fingertips on the cold

lake and and echoed hollow riplet along the smooth mirrored water. And my

eyes did tear at the thought of you, there, while I was here... alone,

seemingly forever have I been. And when I think of how you smile, the moon is

qite overshadowed . What else could crack my shell so easily? A kiss persay,

so soft and sweet.

Oh how it hurts to say, that I will never have the chance to love you. Maybe

that is why I share my loneliness with an empty, cold, lonely night and the

moon a secret confidant to my dreams, hopes, fears, sorrows. I lay each at

your feet, but you don't see. How can you see? Unless you open your eyes,

your heart. Let me in or let me go... just be good enough to let me know

where we ae going... For right now the oblivion of this starry night circles

me and enfold me like a blurry kaleidoscope.

Do you love me or is it purely in my mind? You can't possibly love me - I am

just not your style. A dreamer... hoper... a sweet soul, so lost, confused

forever it seems alone...
