Is That Stardust in Your Eyes

by Twisted Heart   Feb 18, 2007


As I sit among the cinders as they sweetly burn
I think of all the dreaming done within this heart that yearns
I catch a spark of glimmer from the passing of the light
And so it makes me wonder if its stardust in your eyes.

Do you see the flames that flicker as the crackle breaks the night
Along the edges of a star thats caught up in the light
A midst the ashes of a fire that brings the umber shine
Like Rubies and the diamonds fair that glitter so devine.

The tiny little dancers are dressed up in red and white
Mixing oh so joyfully with yellow burning bright
The popping of the flames that stir the ashes once again
Has lent a sense of homage like its welcoming a friend.

The umber burns a little flame and give a gentle glow
Along the casing of a dream that singes at the coal
Is it just illusion that the flames resemble flight
Caught inside the stardust that reflects within your eyes

    Good, in a rather odd way. It didn't seem to rhyme, it didn't seem to flow and yet it did both somehow. This poem ends at exactly the right moment, too. Wonderful peice! I love it, it's one of my favorites.

    Hey! I haven't read any of your new poems for a long time, so I thought I'd check in. Are you still in EOP?

    This was a nice poem! I escpecially liked the line "Do you see the flames that flicker as the crackle breaks the night." - Excellent rhythm, and A nice visual. The flames as "little dancers" was very cool, as well. You seem to have found the style that suits you best... right (or 'write') on!
