Goodnight my Friend

Riding the swell of the only friend that took for what I am, its a burden no one should bear....

I wanted to say goodnight with lightness of being, but crushing passion

The currents of sleep flow tediously when the wants of soft lips are rising

And the coming of the keeper of perfect souls stirs dark winds

Licking ambitions born of a need to feel like a wondrous effigy, burning

Turn in beautiful circles, your thoughts trailing and falling to the ground like snow

 

Good night my friend

Sleep tight my friend

Good night my love

 

And when you hear the faint drumming of the wheels and the trains distant whistle

Making your dreams the most murderous form of travel....reaching point B is impossible

The other sound is that of the glass rod breaking in two cleanly, crystalline click

It is your resolve being challenged and divided between self and other

You busy yourself about your own house while longing to landscape abroad

 

Good night my friend

Sleep tight my friend

Good night my love

 

And if you drift away with such thoughts girl

You will be whole again by morning, eating the crisp yellow sunshine

And if you think of me, let it be brief in time, but magnificent in scope

And if I touch your heart through your ear, then listen and sigh

Blushing becomes you and you become me, good night my friend
