"Midnight's Aren't So Sweet Anymore..."

Monday morning thoughts

This is for you - well, you KNOW who you are... and so do I.

"Midnights Aren't So Sweet Anymore..."

Yet another dark's Midnaught 

revery 

on a coffee morning... 

life as we find in a moment's silence

and yet we are so unique in our darks,

within our ...echoes.

...continuing as we go...

Yours is 

yours and unlike 

mine or hers or theirs 

AND theirs 

are unlike ours as well 

and yet we share 

such sunrise and the rising wisp 

of fading dreams and memories 

- within coffee's grip.

I hear the voices

of life in death -

each as crystal - chalice clear,

as my eyes scratch a path deep

so very hurt full ...deep

behind the echoes fading as they fall

in and ever in

...memories one ...and all.

I loved you, love you...

breathe you...see you - still

...why not me...why not

me?  So many I's in you.

I wasn't innocent ...enough, 

nor good ...enough,

nor the one deserving stars and dreams.

I just am left ...shaking

in the night; standing,

waiting, counting unshared memories,

living with the shadows,

crying with the whispers filling

the midnights left living

wishing... needing...

missing...

all our dreams.

This echoes in places deep within. Left an ache.

some times we are lucky enough to find the one that hears us heart to heart..

This one leaves a taste -- of bitter tears and sugared coffee and longing for what might have could have wasn't should have been ... you are one hell of a poet, friend.
