We talk until I drift to sleep
Smiling at your
Rationalities,
Always creeping into my
Romantic ideology.
Science rings true in this
Mutual philosophy:
Why defy simple biology?
The heart wants what the heart wants
Music is the ultimate language,
And even whales sing
Now, though I wonder if perhaps they dream.
Surely you'd cite the late night cries
Of some beloved canine,
Chasing rabbits in an imaginary land.
Somehow you are home and I am all but lost without you.
Still aching from that loss, I cling to the reality if you. Stay alive, I can't handle any more.
You were family when mine was all too distant, if only in their minds.
Oh, love.
The light creeps in and here I am, wishing for the impossible, and wondering if you see me.
Love only hurts if you let it, yet here I am breaking my own heart again, worth it for a glimpse into your mind, and your thoughts on this world we share.
For this, the loud, dangerous, beautiful world that is -- a world torn asunder.
For now I'll sleep until the sun shines in my face. Here, in the only place I really feel safe.
Where you could reach me.
This was amazing. I enjoyed the depth of your description.
ReplyDeleteYour words...your words...are my words...my thoughts...
ReplyDeleteI lost the love of my life in 2008. I too, talk to him until I drift to sleep. I ache and long for him,and I cling to his memory..our memories. I am so lost without him. The light creeps in, and I continue to wish for the impossible, the desire of my heart...him...the heart wants what the heart wants...him, here with me. I do wonder if he sees me...hears me....feels me, as I do him. My world was and is torn usunder, and I know it will be until I take my last breath and we can be together again...
Thank you for your beautiful words. You have a gift. God Bless...
