“Nevermore”
it was through the hour that stoked the dawn
to push the sun out of its mourn
and force the day to be reborn
I felt the nights dispersion
as crimson tides soaked up the sky
they bled the darkness from my eye
where dreams of you had longed to lie
to rid me of my burden
oh how I clung to every seed
of every dream
that longed to breathe
so I might rest in thoughts of you
this day to never birth anew
oh how I struggled with my mind
hellbent on being so unkind
to pull me out of this here sleep
compelled to feel my heart deplete
where grief should take a heavy hand
the hourglass pushing grains of sand
that force you into nothing more
than thoughts that whisper
“Nevermore”

Thank you Greg. It is for me also. Thank you for leaving your kind thoughts on my poem x
This poem, as sad as it is, is just brilliant! It has that feel that you get when you read the old masters. It is written in the language of poetry itself. It has been beautifully written xx
