Did I really fall asleep again?
Lost in a world where the nightmare dances
With sunlight and casts a
Half shadow
Across my mind?
But she was so pretty in her
Autumn leave gown,
Twirling and twirling and twirling
Until swirls of shadow
Softened, melting her
Into his arms.
And green eyes,
Oh blue and violet eyes, so
Warm and full of winter
As they gaze down
Upon my upturned face.
So that was me all along…
Standing there in a broken
Dawning light while
The chill of midnight wrapped
Itself around us holding
Night and Day together.
Ah, if only to fall once more
Into dreams. This time I can
Assure you that I would
Not mind another
Nightmare.

Oo
I wonder where this came from. Anyway it started with the first line "Did I really fall asleep again?" and then i saw a line somewhere else about nightmares, and then i wanted the piece to be in both third and first person, but i really wanted someone else in there as well and i started writing in opposites and oxymorons, which i hope people caught because they were fun, and i think i might have screwed up the last stanza but thats ok because it kinda makes sense and anyway i asked for a critique so you can all tell me what you think. *GASP* Well whatever. ^^ enjoy. |

 reports, 1d 10h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Twirling and twirling and twirling
