3 am awake and wondering why I replay the moon going through all its cycles realizing how silently one month slips into another unnoticed same street same life different years they pass too quickly without a sound under the same moon Instinctively you understand the importance of every day I've always admired that about you I wish I knew exactly how many I had perhaps there'd be an urgency to spend them savor them ante up in the game of life before the whistle blows I think of you often Your desire to be around water I even look for your reflection in puddles You who are one with the sea I understand it is part of who you are yet a part never shared with me who would ask a duck not to float Or a bird not to fly The sound of water lapping against the shore quiets all other sound until all that remains is liquid silence water is much like a mother's heartbeat to you. In another time our bodies joined together it was bliss, no it was so much more skin against skin touching music, wine, sensual kisses I floated to undiscovered land I thought you joined me At least in my dreams you still do and it is there a note waits for you under the big tree by the river should you return The moon slips behind the clouds thunder rolls in with a vengeance wind chimes beg to be heard My prayers also look for a willing ear I am restless I will never settle for shadows One thing is certain A heart unlocked is not necessarily open How is it that snow, like love, falls unnoticed just as you were wanted and loved by me |
