I cant sleep my bed is so empty But my heart is out there, lost in tennessee But I know I could find her I would walk until my legs refused to move No matter of the weather But I had those flooding memories Everytime I cross those lines of visionary scenes A kiss under the moon light Of old love restarting Only burning melted down candles in my eyes   And I say Darci girl, don’t you ever fear My heart is always there And in the middle of the night when your alone and scared, my eyes are always there for you And when your bones grow cold, I’ll be there to warm you My heart is your heart, it beats here for you   It’s been hours since I have seen your eyes Its been forever since I felt these nervous butterflies And one day soon I will tell you everything you mean to me But I am so afraid, that I wont be able to see   And I say Darci girl, don’t you shed one tear In the middle of the the night I am always right there And when a bad dream comes of long lost memories, I would be there to calm your worries My heart, beats in every direction But my eyes, only look in yours   If I could hold you tonight I could surely sleep But our hearts, they beat seperatly And in this cascading moonlit night My heart beats out of my chest Like a night mare, in the middle of a perfect dream But one day I will tell you everything Everything, that you mean to me But Darci, girl, don’t fear these lonely nights will always be here My heart still beats for yours tonight…

Great Lyrical Voice

I could hear music playing as I read this. I love these lines:- And when your bones grow cold, I’ll be there to warm you My heart is your heart, it beats here for you This is beautiful emotive poetry. Kaz x It's impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside.

The longing and the

The longing and the restrained passion are beautifully contained in the lyrical quality of this work. There is an irresistible quality of serenity about it which draws the reader to empathise readily. Mike "Bethlehem" by Meic See more of my art? please visit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7911705@N07
