The Awakening

The Awakening

A Poem by linear
"

No idea

"

Lying face down with your head in the ground

Eyes wide open trying to sleep

Blot out the image blot out the light

Scared if you see it you might take flight

 

Heavens are opened

And thunder in sight

Take out the world take out thy sight

Leave me in ribbons tattered and frayed

Let me alone, allow me to go home

 

Grey are the clouds, dark is the night

Bury me deep

Down in the ground

O let me sleep or let me go home

 

If I should rise and the sun would shine

Take off your apron and sing out aloud

Wrap me in your arms like a swaddling child

Feeding me with milk of kindness

Giving to the whole world

Life

I am going to do what you said not to... What was your inspiration?
This was a smooth verse. You wrote this very beautifully, capturing the very essence into your words, which I need to say, is a bit difficult to wrap something so free in a cage of wonderful words.
Beautiful :)
