[hometext] => Can I find comfort..?
[bodytext] => Dreams evade so silently
In a vertiginous flight
Through icy blue and shining summits
Of frozen freedom
They sink in warm darkness
As walls echo
A silent scream
Like a pendulum
From east to west to east
This is how my heart swirls around an unbearable center
A churning dance
On a square metre
Beating disquietude
Under a tight rhythm
Sing softly
So that I can sleep
Constantly a calm melody
That guides my dreams
When I wake
In a void filled up quickly
Will you softly embrace me then
So that I can rest in peace

I get such a sense of comfort from this. Like a child waking up from a nightmare and calling and the parent is there right away and comforting and soothing. This is the way I think of God. BIG stuff here.

Oh My Hur.......I can certainly relate to this fine poem you've written here.
My dreams are certainly similiar, however,
I could never master the words, or the rhymn to put them like your dreams so near.
My how talented you be.........won't be long, published you'll see!
Wonderful reading your masterpieces.
poetic hugs

Your vocabulary is always excellent, and it brings your poems alive with your fine choice of words. Well done!
But perhaps it should have had one question mark at the end? It always seems appropriate to me, even when no other punctuation is used.
Excellent piece, Hur!
