Life, as I see it, flowing through my heart and thus through my words...

A set of poems about love, life and broken vessels
***
(: Soon to be published :)
The world is shaking, The foundations tremble, All life as we knew once, Is gone in a wisp, Of dust and ash.
Chaos divides, a shiver in the night, Nightmares quake, a presence in itself, Leaching away, all that we once knew.
Kingdom against kingdom, Nation against nation, Tribe against tribe, Life against life, How long, 'til we die in this storm?
I raise my eyes to the peaceful sky, Them asking in a murmur, "Why do you stay blue?" Stones ripple in the lake, Their cries, a broken scream.
My heart speaks volumes, through my gaze Asking them to grant me this wash I scream at their smug smiles, And patronizing gazes, Yearning for it in this last minute.
Just for a moment, I want to close my eyes, And see paradise, Just for a second, I want to be free of my chains.
In a world where the day is slaved To the night, Where chaos rises, her towering head Glaring at those righteous few, My one wish, is a moment in happiness.
Where I can be free, Free to act as my heart deems, Where my life can be of meaning, Even if it is so ephemeral, I want to see the sights that I have always wished for.
So just for a moment! Whisk me away to paradise, To the place in my waking dreams, To the place where I can be Who he wanted me to be.
Take me away from this closing darkness, Let me be free, Where he is still, Waiting for a glimpse, Of how far I've come.
Just a moment! Let me be with him, Before he goes, Let me feel him in my arms, One last... time.

A/n: Idk if this is really a poem. I mean, its basically a song that came to me last night at 2 am (I couldn't sleep, lol). With the tunes and everything. Idk, I may send this to Natalie Taylor's IG page.... in the hopes that she'll sing it... or something. Free copyright ofc. LOL
