The Edge of Glory

by Sunshine   Jul 31, 2011


On a break spent being astounded
as words fall powerlessly to the
mystical misery taking over my mind,
speechless as emotions thrive
beyond intelligence
beyond what knowledge
can realize.

Bear me to that edge of glory
laying within the most majestic
sadness ever tuned while
thinking of a song to write,
perchance to feel.

Like a lazy river at the very
immature hours of a morning
born by mistake, I lose the tide
doing nothing but enjoying an
ultimate peace rippling inside of me
enjoying sadness to the quite last
rock sleeping down the riverbed.

Proud of the wonder I craft
when philosophy stands in awe
of what the heart can speaks of
yet speaks not,
I reach the edge of what's
no longer
within...

    here's my review:

    You here penned a flawless piece. It was just so perfect in all its aspects.. Structurally, Flow-wise, grammatically, and originality-wise.. It was perfect.
    It's like a piece written from ages. I love these variety of thoughts structured well into this poem.
    It's close to the edge of personal philosophy :)
    It's carved well with its vivid images and mature thoughts..
    It needs to be read more than once to grasp the exact meaning, and it'a definitely winning method!
    Very well done.
    5/5

    now you are the one having me wanting to say the F word...

    this one is some what simplistic
    from what i am used to from you,

    i mean as in the wording and structure...
    but the meaning behind it was strong
    i love how you twisted the whole theme
    the song has going on..

    and turned it into something so sad and heartfelt...

    and there for you are getting a nomination :)!

    hugs
