Listless as a cloud
Being dragged across the sky
Disintegrating….
Travelling through time
While suspended in midnight
Returning to you.
A fleeting moment
Oceans of words unspoken
Too soon you vanish.
Reality comes
And as sure as the morning
Your echo remains.
Til next we meet, there
In that star-concealed escape
Remember me.
You invade my dreams when my guard is down
A betrayal I can never forget
Your liquor-fueled rage stripping me of sound
My former future. My darling regret.
Come morning, you’ll don the face I once knew
You’ll feign no memory, you’ll feel no shame
Cry over the monster deserting you
You’ll continue a life devoid of blame.
Rain at the window
Feeding imagination
Like words on pages
❤
