-
The midnight hour, it captured my fractured sanity.
It swept me off my feet, and stole me away.
I looked for it to return me; that hope was vainly made.
Angrily, it swallowed my essence wholly.
We became one, and I began to shine through it’s spirit
I looked for an escape, but there was none.
My eyes searched frantically for the heart of the night
I found nothing, I found no one else but me.
I called out to it desperately; though only fruitlessly.
My mind now in shreds, my heart frozen.
I laid upon the moonlights’ breadth; monolithically.
The rhythm of my life now slowing sweetly.
The tune became light, and the night swayed with it.
The rhythm and the night became intertwined.
And as they became one, I longed to join their dance.
I reached out, and was thrown back to earth.
I raised my eyes to the sky, longing for my destroyer.
I longed to be held captive just once more.
If only once more, then I might be able to steal a dance.
Just one rhythmic dance to cleanse my sins.

Description:
I wrote this poem last night, I believe.
Also, this poem will be featured in Immortal Verses, a book of poetry coming out in Winter of 2009. I was one of the semi-finalists from all the country to make it :D
