This last dance

Brynlee

The sun dances across the stagnant sky

In a fair waltz with the moon and stars

I see it in your eyes in the moment

Sometimes I will see sadness in your sky

The type of sadness that everyone feels

But can never be akin to others

The type of sadness that i've always held

but can never think to ever speak of 

But in this graceful waltz here and now 

though I see that vulnerability 

You seem to accept it unlike I do

I see you in my nights infinite sky 

Every last star and moon in every life

That last dance in my this twilight

  • Comment from author about the poem: I really enjoy doing things out of my comfort zone with poetry and this sonnet definitely did that for me. I didn't have many ideas for the outcome of this poem but I knew I wanted to confuse people and really make people reflect on what this poem means to them. Whilst I can tell you the meaning, I want you come up with one that makes sense to you and how this poem resonates with you.

    Just riding the feeling created by this poem there was a sense of peacefulness left. It felt very nice
