I sleep 10,000 years,
Each night I close my eyes,
Hoping that you'll be
There sleeping with me.
Even though
Love's hour of forever passes
In a moment of eternity.
Even though
That infinite second means
Each night I close my eyes
I sleep 10,000 years.

jthserraabout 20 years agoAlmost as good as the Triolet, but excellent in its own right. I like the echo at the end... well done...

Angelineabout 20 years agothe reversed repetition at the start and end enclose this short lovely poem like a picture frame--it has the hypnotic feel of that almost asleep fugue state to me. I love this part--
Even though
Love's hour of forever passes
In a moment of eternity.
