Twinkles as diamonds,
within a pitch black sky.
Sleepless mind wanders,
graphic fears wet my eye.
Cotton clouds of night,
should cushion my heart.
Instead psyche darkens,
direct, from the start.
Sunset brings, drastic fears within.
Constant pleading, help me to strengthen.

My mother taught me if you have nothing nice to say don't say it at all. We are not here as pros, we are here to share our art and have fun. *grin*
