Before Dawn

.

Listening to the fading whispers. 

.

Before Dawn       -      04 Sep 21 

Waiting for the first light

The whispers from the night 

Still around

Fading slowly as the sky 

Begins to pale

Before dawn can open and 

Wake the day

.

A kind of pre-dawn chorus.

. 

When Stars

.

Day runs differently for me.

.

When Stars     -    19 Mar 21

As the sky welcomes night

Into open arms

When stars begin to shine

Day is complete

And I wake

.

No I am not a vampire.

. 

Touch

.

Wanting to shift from dream to reality. 

. 

Touch     -     24 Jun 20 

I reach out for you 

Just beyond 

No contact because 

This is only a dream 

My fingers cannot touch 

Cannot claim you 

Sad dream 

I want to wake 

Be with you again 

. 

This has the same feeling as a nightmare. 

. 

In My Dreams

.
Thinking I am waking but...

.
In My Dreams   -   13 Sep 19

I wake
Reaching through the night
For the Moon
As she rides the sky
I wake
Darkness still surrounds
Except where the Moon
Watches through curtains
I wake
In my dreams
Holding you
I rest
Content

.
Awake, asleep, no matter as long as I have you.

.

Unexpected

A curious little love song that grew, as so often the case, from just a couple of words...





Unexpected - 31 Mar 11

Unexpected
The way she watched me
I wasn't prepared
For what I felt
The way she touched me
In ways that reached within
And woke me

I didn't realise
How deep
Till my Heart opened
And I felt her eyes
Look in
And touch my Soul
To wake me





Thank you Muse for the inspiration.
