Untitled

In the night I feel it-
damp and lonely
clinging like a wet rag
to what's become of my heart.
The obvious can kill you
and ignorance is bliss
so pretend the truth is
merely being misunderstood...
But it creeps upon me
when I have a minute alone
with my mind
and my own thoughts have
a way of betraying me
and what I've grown to find real...
Do your hands reach for my heart
out of attachment or need?
Do your ears search for my words
out of dependacy or amazement?
The night stretches far beyond
your arms
and the darkness holds me more
than your embrace.
