Like a lark

my body sinks deep
Into the 
soft white silks of slumber .
While my mind like a lark
lies awake within the dark .
My eyes torn and tattered
by the  beatific yet bleak color of  blue .
Bellows out onto the
world.

" for world turn the tides of time towards
the alluring seas of  my yesteryear.
So I can flow back to that
once familiar face.
Who's eyes once
swirled within
The sweet
serenades of
sapphire and  hands.
So cold and calm
yet so caring
and warm.
I yearn for
those hands
to once again
be firmly grasped
upon mine. "
