Blurring Holiday Poem by KarlRomeo PierreLouis

And he asked for one more sunrise
along the purple hazed sunset of the day before
as his counting breath shorten his ideals
he whispered a confession to the passing clouds above
like a star gazer he fading his fears to the back of his mind
romancing a bit of a smile and sweet thought
to relieve the horrid shortness of wind and tree color
surrounding his view of the glowing evening sky
and he asked for one more sunrise
as a tear escapes him before his shaken exhale
it is the melody of past lullabies he remembers now
a medley of voices and laughter he drifts to
colors of poetry he falls in
it'll almost be bitter-sweet if he could only see her face
a memory he searches for but in reality he yearns to touch
and as the night blankets over him and the stars begin their shine
he can only ask for a gentle morning sunrise..
