Prompt: (I just love this poem too much and I see Starry just as needy as the author. Sorry if it sounds funny, the poem is actually brazilian ; o ; )

Still night it was, when first she said to me
Between two kisses that I could not stay,
And I, with tear-filled eyes, began to plea:

"At least please wait until the break of day!
Your room's a fragrant nest, my heart is glad ...
And see what darkness hovers out that way!

I low can you turn me out, alone and sad,
To wed the night and cold that's in my breast
With that cold night with which the road is clad?!

Hear? it's the wind! a storm! the sky's distressed!
Don't throw me out into the rain-swept gale!
Don't ban me from you bed, let me find rest!

I´ll die of heartbreak and from yearning fail...
Oh wait! until the sun bursts forth, I pray,
Come warm me with your youth, I´m cold and pale!

And on your lap permit my head to lay
As once it did before you had complained ...
Please wait a while! let night turn into day!"


—And she held out her arms. And I remained.

And, then came morning, when she said to me
That I must leave her side and go away,
And I, with tear-filled eyes, began to plea:

"Oh this can't be! can you not see it's day?
For dawn, with fire and blood, the clouds has chased…
And were I caught, of you what would they say?

Don't tell! it matters not; it's best erased!...
But please, what would they think if l were sent,
At early morning, from your door in haste,

And seeing me exhausted, pale and spent,
Ali caused by the aroma of your kiss
So scandalously filled with fragrant scent?

Our love, dear, cannot modesty dismiss ...
Oh wait! until the sun has gone, I pray,
Come kiss my lips! come quench the fire of bliss!

And on your lap permit my head to lay
As once it did before you had complained!
Please wait a while! let night erase the day!"


—And she held out her arms. And I remained.

Prompt:
- Edgar Allan Poe – A Dream Within A Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

Prompt: Peacock with your feathers so bright,
So blue and beautiful, so full of might,
You stand up tall, proud and bold,
You have so many adventures yet to be told.

Peahen you’re so shy and demure,
Something about you feels unsure,
You don’t know what you want just yet,
You will find out soon, there’s no need to fret.

Prompt:
When you’re up against a trouble,
    Meet it squarely, face to face;
Lift your chin and set your shoulders,
    Plant your feet and take a brace.
When it’s vain to try to dodge it,
    Do the best that you can do;
You may fail, but you may conquer,
    See it through!

Black may be the clouds about you
    And your future may seem grim,
But don’t let your nerve desert you;
    Keep yourself in fighting trim.
If the worst is bound to happen,
    Spite of all that you can do,
Running from it will not save you,
    See it through!

Even hope may seem but futile,
    When with troubles you’re beset,
But remember you are facing
    Just what other men have met.
You may fail, but fall still fighting;
    Don’t give up, whate’er you do;
Eyes front, head high to the finish.
    See it through!

So sorry for the delay but congratulations! I loved this. A little hard to grasp but it was a really sweet one as my head wrapped about it <3
