shooting stars with whispered arrows [one thing]

By Six-Out

one thing. one place.
subtle dreams- whispers lingering. adrift
seashell princess. shooting stars.
and a voice like a buttefly misfit.

on the edge of oblivion.
waves battering disasters. tomorrow creeping.
as the sunlight sillhouette- tip.toes over
the borders and boundries. sleeping
under star-splashes. misty moonlight
and the night says goodbye.

intent on interest. oblivious seems best
when the silence beams with
the leftovers of the cosmos.
eyes like blue flame- the water plays tricks
when existance is left in awe.
all feeling weightless. it's always about
tonight.


with one hand. and one mind.
the sand like stardust. lingering behind.
wandering this coastal land. searching for one time.
and time is endless.
in this moment.

one thing.

and all was left breathless.

    Dude, I love how it seems like you through your concience to the wind, and just write straight from the soul. This one owns me. It reads like a battle cry.

    "It's always about tonight", "the sand like stardust", so many beautiful little lines, so wonderfully working together for the momentum of this piece, which stops you at the edge of a cliff, and then you breathe out.
