    White swans of beauty

    These swans on my lifelong river of years
    are swimming around between laughter and tears
    White swans of beauty on a river so blue
    They have their grace and they look like you

    Beautiful swans you will meet later on
    and you will find out that your beauty has gone
    Feathers are falling as the time passes by
    They are blowing along with the riders in the sky

    The heart of a swan is the heart of a bird
    but the heartbeat will never ever be heard
    That's because birds fly so high in the sky
    while you stay on ground and you wish you could fly

    White wings of power one morning in May
    are flying these swans back during the day
    Back to a place where the evening keeps the sun
    alive and still shining 'cause the night is on the run

    Swans against the sun in a silhuette of art
    are slowly reflecting that lovers are apart
    White swans of beauty on a river so blue
    They have their grace and they look like you

    very moving, I really like it!!

    Personally, I think that the unique and supreme delight lies in the certainty of doing 'evil'–and men and women know from birth that all pleasure lies in evil. - Baudelaire

    I like the rhyming its almost as if it came naturally (i hate trying to find words to rhyme if im doing a rhyming poem)
    Its so beautiful like the beauty its describing (sappy but true)

    Last stanza's definitelly my fave. I like the way there are the swans 'everywhere', connecting the events into a whole.
    I have a plan: attack!
