so it be.

Something written on a sleepless night when she wasn't with me.

were my love a star 
    suspended within space 
    i would fly to see her 
    and leave my body there 
  were she let lie 
    so close to all the earth 
    i would rest beneath the roots 
    and leave my body there 
and so it be 
  with the sirens singing above 
    serenading her in sleep 
    i will crawl beneath the sea silt 
    and leave our bodies there.

Poetry is spoken from the heart. That is what I feel is written here. It is emotion.
I think this is a good work.
Keep writing.
