Midnight on monday,
ushering the Tuesday in.
Suffocating darkness,
and a night that never ends.
Not a sound can be heard
from my window
on the second floor.
No midnight rides,
or songbirds
welcoming the morn.

The dreaded peal of the church bells
next door awaken me
with a start.
Long before the sun graces my skin.
I rise to face a day
with nothing left to bring me.

I had a plan that ended
yesterday afternoon.
I worked my life away
for a man, who forgot how to love.
I too cannot remember the meaning of the word.
An ineffable idea
for which i wasted two years.
I returned and you were gone.

The night unveils the stories
entangled in dreams,
of others who fell victim
to my ultimate scheme.
of lovers i've used
and friends i've abused
perhaps i don't deserve anyone.
Yet I still love you.

12:01 tuesday morning,
and the night presses in.
no where left to go.
no love left to give.
No stone on my window
no midnight ride.
Perhaps I dont deserve anyone
but i still hold you inside.

WOW .well done.. Thanks for sharing that

thank you for sharing that!
I love it! I understand how you feel!
i've been there.
