As silence fills the hour no meddling thoughts deflower
I find myself inflated by a rush of night
No words escape my lips no sound takes flight
no poetry breaks loose beneath this mind's ignite;
Within the rhythm of this time and space
the tumult of my yesterdays embrace
As darkness falls like a curtain of obscurity
I pledge allegiance to the stars,
and all the angels that guide me safely out.
A hundred hours I can't replace in the safety of this place
A hundred more I can restore for there is always more
inside this beating heart that wants to sleep or live
the sound of silence fills my ears and as my fantasies kicks in,
my reveries begin...
Your verses are very engaging and evocative, Vienna. I love the time of day when Lady Darkness wends her way my way. 😉🙏 Love, peace, and best wishes to you,

I, too, have found recently that my dreams are reveries of things I've never done but enjoy doing in my sleep.
