Called forth at that ungodly hour by a whisper tail of a lie that caught me off guard.
Washed over me anew like a fresh spring cascading from a mountain cliff
The hope that died a thousand deaths just died a thousand and one
Sleep betrayed me with your essence winding around my senses
Midnight ghost of a lover long left
I still feel your hollow in my bed as if you'd always been there
Even though the true warm of your body never rested upon it.
Just an undying whim
A needy grab at the air of you
And I shame to admit this heart has no standards
Because you are none of any thing good but so desperately pretty
My beautiful destruction for what I wish most, I'm most afraid to claim
So, on with forgetting
May it happen one day soon.
Intense! I hope your hope is
Intense! I hope your hope is born anew. I love.
