The Midnight Smiles

 

The midnight smiles. 
I write words. 
 
Pockets of emptiness, 
sealed symbols. 
 
Absence does not make 
the heart grow fonder. 
 
It lends distance, 
and forgetting. 
 
Love, so much 
over-used. 
 
Love is, in truth, 
really love for self. 
 
A moment, this 
is what I have. 
 
A small space of 
time that I claim. 
 
It is mine, to waste 
or to cherish. 
 
A noise outside. 
Not sure what it is. 
 
Something abusive, 
something harsh. 
 
The midnight smiles. 
I write words.
