I hear your sounds, in the silence of the night

The wee hours call to me, your song, so right

The one you played incessantly, day after day

The one I played, to comfort me, when you went away

This memory I have of you, sings forever, in my heart

It lets me keep you close to me, now that we’re apart

Until the day, we meet again, your song shall ever play

Upon my broken heart strings, there, is where they’ll stay

I walk in the night, under the moon

Gathering my thoughts, in the dark

But he sets in the sky, much too soon

I need him, to create that spark

The one that keeps me writing

When I don’t think I have another word

The one, who makes things exciting

Yes, he calls me his little night bird

Until sun comes up, without discussion

Making the darkness fade swiftly away

I feel nothing, just moonstruck repercussions

When I have to deal with the light of day

He: What do you want for Christmas?

Me: Nothing. I have everything I need.

He: Are you sure?

Me: Yes. We spent the day together, shopping,
dining, and just enjoying. I can’t think of a
better gift than that.

He: I agree. We must do it again. Soon

 

This is a true story.  My husband & I opted to not exchange gifts this year, rather spend more time together just enjoying life.  It was truly a beautiful day, with many more to come.   🙂

Ruffled in red, lips the same hue

She sits at a table, once meant for two

The champagne, now gone, an empty glass

Waiting beside her, this sorrowful lass

Hopes of togetherness, no longer exist

He left her for another, his secret tryst

She lays down her head, as sleep settles in

And dreams of a love, that never has been

Crave ~ #RomanticTuesday #poetry #freeverse

His hands were rough

Against the softness of her skin

An unshaven face

Bristled against her neck

His lips, a salted cold

Whispered, sending chills

Time together shortened

He would soon set sail

A memory, until he returned

A longing deep within

He was all she knew

And it was his touch

She would always crave
