#poets-forever

The longer the days,  The shorter my words;  Winded spirit, And exhausted imagination;  Leaving fingers weak, and pen heavy.  

Dreams are infectious.  Leaving footsteps of false hope, And tainted memory. Injecting a yearning to wake up, Just to long to fall asleep again.  

I apologize for that! Not to make up excuses or anything, but I have been busier than ever!! I feel like I haven't even gotten a chance to breathe yet this summer. Today was the first day I actually got to really sleep in past 9, too, it has been insane. And by the end of the day I'm so tired I just can't bring myself to write anything xD 

Anywho, with that out of the way! 

We are at 46 followers! 4 more until the 50 follower giveaway :D 

Which I still need to buy things for.... hm... So much to do!!!!

But yes, I am going to say that I hope to be posting more, but I am going to be quite honest with you, I can't promise all hold to that... I'll try, but I also got an iPhone recently and have been tumblring with that and, well, I only reblog stuff on it because typing is a pain xD My poor computer has been sadly under used since I got it...  never the less! I will try to get back to at least posting something every day. I might start reblogging some poetry, too, just over the summer so people don't get too bored with this blog. 

And AS ALWAYS!!! 

SUBMIT SUBMIT SUBMIT!!!!! :D I will be checking submissions every day, guaranteed, and they ALL will get POSTED! So submit away my lovely poets and writers!!!!!!! ^^. 

They want to save me, To offer relieving black in place of agonizing red, Hold me in an embrace of rest, And to help me see the brighter side. I want them to kill me, To take away my thoughts, Consume me in nothingness, Remove me from the consequences of life.

I want them to save me, To replace my overwhelmed senses with relief, Hold me in arms so safe, And help me wake up on a better day.

So dearly do I want to give in, Simply say okay, Take a deep breath and close them, And fall asleep.

I am your light, At your darkest hour. I will be the silver lining, Giving you hope on a stormy day. 

I am a shoulder, That will gladly soak up your tears. I will be a hug, Hiding you away from everything.

I am a smile, That will always be here for you. I will be a space giver, Silently watching when you need time. I am an open mind, That wants to take some of your burdens. I will be whatever you need, Just say the word and I’m there.   I am,  And I will always be,  Your sunshine at midnight.
