In The Still Of The Night

by End Of Eternity   Dec 12, 2009


A call from you yesterday
Brought all that sweet pain back
Seems I've lost my will to sleep
Or it's my heart that has a crack

Your eyes felt like home to me
Where I would have loved to live
Somehow here we are so far away
With too much pride to forgive

Dear moon, if I could bring you down
Would you light this darkness inside
My heart has more scars than you
Feeling so alone, hear my cries

Memories of you weigh me down
Now I'm crawling at my own pace
Leaving behind trails of remorse
Everywhere I turn, seeing your face

A call from you tomorrow
Will bring me hope to survive
Give me faith again to love
Help me feel I'm still alive

    When someone picks up a phone and call you it means that they are thinking of you, and sometimes that call comes at a time when we really need some one to talk to.
    Your poem is absolutely beautiful my friend.Every word in each stanza speaks volume of a heart in pain which I find very sad.
    I enjoy reading this piece.
    Take care.
