September Raining
September Raining
somewhere in-between
a echoing whisper
that has played on
for far too long
and a tearkissed sky
that's cryin’ all alone
I silently danced
upon a trembling sliver
of midnight crave
where my body swayed
to the rhythm of a romance
that my heart ever longs
to believe in
losing myself
in all the images of you
that I keep tenderly
tucked away
in the quiet deep
of my soul
and at windows edge
an ecru fog
hung luminous
sheathing landscapes
barring glistening pavements
still dancing wet
within rippling colors
from an early morning rain
and there I remembered
hollow and endless
are dreamless days
when my heart is dying
from its own love
fraught with an unbearable
ache to bestow
a lover's truth upon
your gently beating heart
a vestige of survival
denies me that liberty
saving for me my dignity
but not my sanity
inadvertently weakening
my spirit's sparkle
leaving me nothing here
to hold on to
yet even knowing
the venue is unjust
that hope is washed away
within the light of breaking dawn
my body still sways
to the rhythm of a romance
that my heart will always long
to believe in
