She peers out the window,
past the sunless sky,
and beyond its torrent of
turbid tears,
free from the demented dysphoria
that fellow denizens drown in.
Looking upon the heavens,
she sees not the gray
of an overcast dawn,
but a portrait of eventide,
embedded with Sonoran stars,
for she is a dreamer
and dances to the hymn of Adytum.

   This is strickingly beautiful. There are no words for it, it's just perfect. I can completely relate to it and I love the emotion you put into writing it. It really shows.

I honestly ran out of words to compliment your work...lol your poem is just wonderful I mean you have the skill to let us feel and picture the scene. That's all I can think of right now as a compliment I hope it's enough though ^_^ Carry on in this track and you'll be the greatest poet of 21th century someday ;) Thanks for sharing this
