Night silence is deafening,
In still of night when all creatures,
Have finished having their say,
No word or touch comes in any form,
Festering my mind, staining our hearts,

How little it would take, with moments to spare,
To fill emptiness a silent night brings,
Clock will tick-tock on never losing momentum,
Days run together as silence sustains,
No word or touch will come,

An endearing night becomes our enemy,
Gnawing away each day making all seem alike,
Warm sunshine tries it's best to hide,
A deafening silence each new day brings,
Without feeling tender moments of you.

Mystery of night,
Reflecting,
Street scenes,
With ghosts of,
Neon Light,
Blinking red,
Dark blue night hues,
A mesmerizing stare.

Night sky lies ink black dark tonight,
You are far away,
I am without you in my arms,
it’s not like what I am used to,
Being so far away from you,
I wish my prayers would be,
Answered from Almighty above,
Looking I do not to see your face,
What would I do to feel your embrace,
Times would hard and rough,
Should you not be mine
I feel lonely being without you,
Distance between us leaves me blue.
If I could have you in my arms
Embracing you again;
Holding you from deep within,
I am lonely for you in this time,
Wishing you be forever mine.

For as long as I live,
Whether it be an hour, or weeks of years,
I’ll remember friendship you give,
Of true soul-mate feelings,

Softness of your smile,
Tempered steel of your heart,
Your twinkling silver misty blue eyes,
You a disguised angel, thou art,

Thou our measured time be short or long,
There is a private place,
Waiting deep in my heart,
Where you can turn your face,

Through all our universe of space,
And millions of miles beyond,
Past dust of all time,
Your soul speaks to me.

Bright red flowers
lush
against the sidewalk,
waiting
for someone to pick
them, tuck them
behind their ear

Sleep
was impossible
with the memory
of you curled
next to me
like a semicolon,
legs tangled
under the blankets --

My fear of god
is not because
I fear power. I fear
lightning, I fear cliffs
and elevators and
power lines, I fear
what makes us holy

I fear your eyes,
I could fall
straight into them
and never come out
again, and when
I had to leave, I'd be stuck
between your eyelashes
like a cancer, you would
hold me there forever

This human heart
beats quicker
than I remember,
dreams gone soft
in the twilight;
my unholy breath
beats rough
against my tongue,

and once, your tongue
beat against mine
and I remember thinking
this must be what
heaven feels like

Your scent lingers leaving,
Breathless thoughts of you,
Which wander through my mind,
Can you feel my heart racing?
Can you hear me whisper your name?
Catching air as I breathe wanting you,
Feeling your skin brush mine,
Wanting to share more than you know,
Thoughts of you become lost,
Traveling corridors in my mind,
With more nights of endless days,
Lonely times seem to never end.

When I lay in bed below the moon,
And drift away into the land of night,
My thoughts and journeys merge into a tune.
I miss all of the songs I wish to write
In light of all what is missing in the day,
I yearn to understand all that I've missed;
Those lovely thoughts that once bestowed my brain
But vanished from my soul into the mist.
Yet if such imagination grasps me here,
And takes me far away from where I am,
Then death provides me not with such a fear,
But the bliss of knowing more than I can fathom.
          If my dying hand could only grasp the pen
          To tell you of my vision at the end.
