Dream, My Soul

HEIDIKINS

Dream, my soul parched of light,

Say not unto me a frivolous plight,

The silent night with cursed tongue,

Slays my dreams with one thrust.

 

Oh, bitter tongue,

Speaks plagues unto the heart,

Dancing demons to blind the soul,

Darkness, black as pitch,

Descends to cloud the mind

from ethereal thoughts

of the flesh divine.

 

How pure is my soul,

Quenched by eternal light,

Shards of radiant beams,

Cut out the vengeful tongue,

For my heart is full of love,

That paramount the demons,

And truth spoken through innocent lips,

Written by my time worn hands,

Will purge the blackness,

Smite the demons

that poison virtuous love.

 

Dream, my soul drenched in light,

Say unto me a lover's delight,

The silent night with breath's upon lips

Slays the nightmare apocalypse.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this for myself while going through a very large change in my life and how the power of the tongue can affect your thoughts. Your tongue and that of others can be a powerful and very hurtful weapon. Throughout this change I really came back into my own from where I had stuffed parts of me away. Why did I do that to myself? I cannot fully answer, but I know life sometimes just gets in the way and before we realize what has happened we lose ourselves. I have felt the sting of the tongue challenging my change, challenging my own personal thoughts and feelings. The demons they try to manifest inside you to change your heart, change your life, your dreams. But my heart is full of love, light and good. Sometimes we have to let people go in order to experience and find true joy within ourselves and not let them try to manipulate because they are afraid of your change or want things to go back to the way they were. So I am living my life as myself and I am not going to hide anymore.
