Elysian Fields by *Zarathustras-Crown:iconZarathustras-Crown:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Philosophical > Open




Her hair reminded me of the dying edge of twilight,
when she moved the stars turned and shone for me

Luna, her face in a halo of light
shines through me...
erases my consistency
and places me in a world of transition.
Translucent like gel.

I needed to find somewhere to make myself whole again.
I needed Elysian fields where I could sleep,
where I could protract my will to life...

She simply enclosed me in her breast,
and began to sing me to sleep one last time
with her voice of ten thousand midnight ravens.
I’m so sorry.

This is about igniting yourself in someone else, and in it's way about extinguishing that connection at the same time. The pic is from [link] and it's a beautiful pic. For those curious about Elysian Fields...see [link] for a good write up :) hope you like...it's about as honest as I write.

:: explodes :: this is amazing! i love how vivid it is.
"She simply enclosed me in her breast,
and began to sing me to sleep one last time
with her voice of ten thousand midnight ravens.

those lines are especially beautiful and i especially love how you connected her voice with ravens.
brilliant!

Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all. Thoreau said, "Most men lead lives of quiet desperation." Don't be resigned to that. Break out!
