In an upside-down garden

Hiding in the shadows of the streetlights
in secrecy, we exchange
tonight's final good-bye

Impatience knocks on my window
one last kiss to hold me over
until tomorrow

The warmth of your body captures me
the cold of the world
a saddened refresher when you leave

Everyday the same routine
falling back into this with you
and I don't mind

Aww... every routine day is the best day of your life... how sweet.  

Almost didn't expect you to answer this challenge.  I'm glad that you did... I like this, and it offers a lot of insight into you.  

Good to know you're happy with your routine life.     

See you around.

Is this in response to Vicky's challenge? It's nicely done, and what a sweet scene you wrote.

Howl at the stars, whisper when you're sleeping, I'll be there to hold you, I'll be there to stop the chills and all the weeping.

Allysa~
I'm glad I found this before it got away.
I really enjoyed this, and I love the whole
idea of your 'routine' day being the 'best' day.
I can't help but smile at that.
Thanks for responding to the challenge.
You've done a great job with it, and I hope
to see you respond to the next one too.
It will be posted as a new announcement this friday,
so be sure to check it out.
Hugs,
~Vicky

Thank you all very very much... I have to go be sick now, so I'll see you all later.

You know what sucks?  My school's field hockey team made it to state and the competition is about an hour/hour and a half away, the school is hiring transportation, but my mother won't give me permission to go because I called her at work... Makes me sad.  I want to go support the girls!  I just might have to dye my hair blue tomorrow to support them... anyway, my temp (which is normally 96.4) is at 98.8 and my head hurts... ahhh.  *cough*
