Analysis of To you up there



The stars are bright,
As they glisten through the night.
Then at dawn,
They are forlorn,
As the sun breaks.
And shines with all its might.

Shadows form,
In early morn,
As we sit and wait.
For time has gone,
And before long,
Another fulfills its gait.

Sadness fills,
Ghastly chills,
As the day partakes.
But you remind me here,
Not to fear,
For its love that awaits.

Geni Kelepouris

I began writing when i was 16. I enjoy expressing myself through all forms of art ( my profile pic is one of my art pieces). I have had a life full of tragedies and suffer post traumatic stress. I find that art and writing soothes my soul and allows me to heal from all the pain that has been haunting me. I have an obsession with existence and love nothing more than to discuss all the different theories of why we are here. My poems cover a range of topics from love and inspiration to complete random mania. There are also some very deep poems that i needed to write to get the sorrow from my life. I just hope whoever is reading them enjoys them. more…
