Array ( [sid] => 56310 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Quiet moments [time] => 2004-07-15 17:51:16 [hometext] => One of the first poems I wrote about/for Handsome Charlie. Thank you for reading/commenting* [bodytext] => Quiet moments
My mind spent in search of
Combing a composer's room
In my head
I fear the words will enter
As I leave
Or vice versa.

You sit in my memories
And the thoughts I spread
Into a future
Of those you will create
You visit me in my deep sleep
And dream with me until I wake
Early mornings lost to
And in the gaze of you
I hope to find myself

But I am weaker than you know
Still, relentless in my pursuit
To secure the strength to share
These thoughts
And all the while, my silent voice,
I ponder on.

For neither a mouth dry
Nor paper and pen
Can conjure the means
Not for lack of trying
But more that
You defy words in me,
Too beautiful to describe

So I lie in wait
These quiet moments
And stir not
For you enter my world
As the sadness in me leaves
And I will try
Into the time it takes
To tell of that
And thank you for it. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 55 [informant] => reilt [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

Quiet moments

Quiet moments
My mind spent in search of
Combing a composer's room
In my head
I fear the words will enter
As I leave
Or vice versa.

You sit in my memories
And the thoughts I spread
Into a future
Of those you will create
You visit me in my deep sleep
And dream with me until I wake
Early mornings lost to
And in the gaze of you
I hope to find myself

But I am weaker than you know
Still, relentless in my pursuit
To secure the strength to share
These thoughts
And all the while, my silent voice,
I ponder on.

For neither a mouth dry
Nor paper and pen
Can conjure the means
Not for lack of trying
But more that
You defy words in me,
Too beautiful to describe

So I lie in wait
These quiet moments
And stir not
For you enter my world
As the sadness in me leaves
And I will try
Into the time it takes
To tell of that
And thank you for it.
