Quiet nights echo nothing
but the tinkering of rain
slow and steady
no sound of ceasing, just
on and on like the
crystal clear tears
trailing with no direction
from my eyes
at night mostly when I'm
just too tired to think beyond
images and sounds
here and there in my mind
softer and softer
as exhaustion overtakes
and the heaviness of sleep
blankets me softly
again


To capture and live a moment is truly living

Dream, you make one taste the salt, and feel the exhaustion...

Welcome to Passions!

But never let go of the memories.

Lovely piece. I hope your dreams a sweet ones.

You got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
and show the world all the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That your beautiful as you feel.~~~ Carol King
