meteors
as i lay alone
under the stars
the flashes of light
pass my dark shadow
my body pressed against
the cold hard wood
with a comfortable chill
trickle down my back
silence is all i hear
with the occasional rabbit scurrying around
in the near by bushes
my eyes glued to the night sky
as if i been watching lighting from a distant planet
eyes become heavy and catch myself
and then streaks of light caught my sadated stare into nothing
out there
up there
it is like a puzzle that needs to be put together
the stars
would talk to me
and i could learn so much more about myself
by the stories that gazz upon me
hands interlocked with eachother across my stomach
as if i were laying in my tomb or forever rest in peace
i lay there lifeless
like a rock
motionless
but i only wonder
with no one by my side to share such a moment of nature
breathless
isolated from reality
and only a moment of my own
and jus maybe
jus maybe ill be happy for such a time
but such a time exist only in dreams
and for once i felt like i was in one
as i watch the 100s of meteors leave me like everything else in my life
as i lay alone
under the stars
the flashes of light
pass my dark shadow
my body pressed against
the cold hard wood
with a comfortable chill
trickle down my back
silence is all i hear
with the occasional rabbit scurrying around
in the near by bushes
my eyes glued to the night sky
as if i been watching lighting from a distant planet
eyes become heavy and catch myself
and then streaks of light caught my sadated stare into nothing
out there
up there
it is like a puzzle that needs to be put together
the stars
would talk to me
and i could learn so much more about myself
by the stories that gazz upon me
hands interlocked with eachother across my stomach
as if i were laying in my tomb or forever rest in peace
i lay there lifeless
like a rock
motionless
but i only wonder
with no one by my side to share such a moment of nature
breathless
isolated from reality
and only a moment of my own
and jus maybe
jus maybe ill be happy for such a time
but such a time exist only in dreams
and for once i felt like i was in one
as i watch the 100s of meteors leave me like everything else in my life

I usually can tell in the first 10 lines if I'm going to like the method of writing and rythem of the words. I could tell right away that I'd like lit. That the beat of the poem would be pleasent to me. And then you add the words and what you're saying...
