THE BECKONING NIGHT'S WISHES

Folder: 
JOURNAL#23

all my sweet lonelies

eager flesh comes pounding out

a salt less ocean

crashing upon no true shore

mental snapshots singed by tears

memories reconfigured

one fraction of a vaguely recalled feeling

at a time

absorbed by 'The Beckoning Night's Wishes'

I make love with the past

for the present is a joke

and I fear a future that may not want me

as I am

weak

meaningless

rarely thought of

self pity is such  an ugly cloak

to wear..............
