"I need a glimpse"A Poem by Zack BurtonPoem #13. Uploaded Monday November 8, 8:08 PM.I need a glimpse Before the night Before the day is over Your eyes are dry Your heart is light Your soul is like a treasure From blond to black From night to day Somehow I'm slowly slipping This icy slope It's safe to say There's nowhere left for gripping Pretzel-soft And diamond-hard There's angels in your footsteps I see a lake Of flowers charred My throat is choked with love-streps Your limping gait Your break-out face For every fault I love you Your sacred heart My nearby place For every blessing, need you Mortar-strong Forever-god Your hand is surely lightning It's very true It's somewhat odd My love for you is frightening © 2010 Zack Burton |
