13th June, 2004. 2:29 pm. Poem

This is my first entry, but not my first blurty. So, I'm not even gonna do the intro-thing. Lol, but I did just finish my poem I've been working on for forever, so I'm gonna put it in here:

It's called "A Break"

The tide rises
Covers the sun
The clouds disappear
The night has begun
Over the washing sound
Of this demonic place
I still hear your voice
I can still see your face
Clear as the air
A pebble on my mind
It's getting harder to bear
As I've come to find
How do I make it stop?
When time doesn't come to my aid?
How do I get up from this shadowy tomb
Of which my sanity is supposed to remain?
How do I make the beating stop?
The one that rattles my soul
How do I make this broken heart heal?
How do I let you go?
I need a push
A shove from the wind
To head me along my way
I need to be able to look back at those times
And know exactly what I can say
I run down the coast
The moon as my light
I don't feel the sand
I've taken flight
The stars are the brightest
That I've ever seen
My body's inspired
This feels like a dream
Spinning and spinning
My world leaves my eyes
I can now only feel
The moon and the skies
Maybe I'll stay here
I say out loud
Maybe I'll live among
The stars and the clouds
The wind is my earth now
I have no fear
If only, I pray
This could be real.

I start to fall
Slowly to the ground
I hear my feet hit the sand
I look all around
I'm back to the place
Where my heartbreak remains
I know I can't go back
To the celestial plains
This is my home
I have to make it work
I have to ignore
All my anguish and hurt

The tide dies down
The moon saunders off
The sun peaks up
The night is lost
Yet here I am
And will always be
Because now I know
What it's like to be free

(if you think of a better title, let me know please!)
