Question:
Would you rate my poem?
If only the night had lasted
I close my eyes and think of that night
Your eyes are the stars I see
How gladly I would have traded my soul
To have stayed there for eternity
Your hair was soft as a summer??s breeze
Your smell as sweet as a kiss
I etched the moment in my mind
So I could always reminisce
As I traced the outline of your face
I fought to slow down time
But the hours I had were fleeting few
Those few I claim as mine
With every ounce of strength I fought
To slow the passing time
But every ounce was not enough
As clock bells began to chime
With the sum of all of my want and love
I waged a war I could not win
Powerless to hold onto a night
I could not will into being again
I could not hold onto the night
And soon your memory will fade
You??ll have no remembrance of my love for you
Or of the pledges that I made
You don??t remember the pledges I made
Forgotten in your frenzied state
But I will never forget the way you felt
As the night??s hour approached late
Today your dizzy head betrays you
With each day the details wane
But mine are honed as sharp as steel
The night??s memory keeping me sane
You smiled at me today
And today that will get me by
Perhaps today I could have called you mine
If only the night had lasted...
