thin fragile blades of grass collect the dew
an emergence of green in the coolness of blue
then, I witnessed small drips like crystal tears as they fell
into waves from my heart, filling a private wishing well
through the night
whispers’ of ecstasy never said
I close my eyes, the words depart unread
wishes unanswered and visions unassembled
nothing made a difference as my fingers trembled
through the night
eyes flutter open worry seems trivial
it's only emotional within your own denial
while, I fell through the clouds the nightmare comes and goes
screams for help, no voice replied, no voice echoes
through the night
I am swallowed whole for what I thought to be real
but now I have to deal with the feelings that I feel
I ask myself, so what was written on all of your pages
they were only gifts of my love, not wisdom from sages
through the night
now you are far away and out my sight
I am in darkness away from your light
where everything is shadowed, like it was never right
alone, I’ll have to make it through another night
