Let It In (Leighann)

It's been such a long long time since I've posted here. I was beginning to
think I would never again have something to contribute to the world of poetry,
but I actually have two new recent writings. To my old friends, it's nice to
see you again. =) To any new friends, it's nice to meet you. I hope you like
my depressing, if not annoyingly cliched brand of writing. Here's the
first of my two new poems. This one is for the girl I thought was my
dream, but who turned out to be the tainted angel.
Let It In (Leighann)
--------------------
This dream is going to haunt me
Unless it is reality
Until my mind is a swirling
oblivion
A wishing well of uncertainty
The touch of your breath on my face
A cooling summer eastern wind
Consuming my soul, a tornadic
uplifting
And I will be free to let you in
Silence the voice
Block out all the screaming
You have the choice
Cuz seeing's believing
I'm at the door
My heart pounding, scheming
Until there's no more
(Leighann)
Of you I am dreaming
As the children of the world sleep
Your inner child trembles in fear
While the monsters of your past lurk
under the bed
The child wipes away a single tear
And I stand at the gates of your heart
Broken glass of heartache within
The doors are chained and padlocked all
love imprisoned
Will you set it free and let me in?
Silence the child
Block out all her screaming
Out in the wild
Beasts are all retreating
I'm at the door
My heart pounding, scheming
Until I'm no more
(Leighann)
Of you I am dreaming
All of the pain
The pain you hide so well
It will remain
Your own personal hell
But you have the choice
To set it free or let it in
Silence the voice
Block out all the screaming
You have the choice
Cuz seeing's believing
I'm at the door
My heart pounding, scheming
Until there's no more
(Leighann)
Of you I am dreaming
Of you I am dreaming
....as always....
*Tuus inamicus pessimus est te*
