Twelve o’clock
And zero, seven minutes past
Look up again
The seven is an eight

Close my eyes
Pull back my hair
Daddy’s still awake
Downstairs

Seconds tick, minutes fly
Look up again
It’s one-o-nine

Still awake
No need to sleep
Besides the creeping
Burn in my eyes

I have no use
I have no point
I just keep writing
And blame it on the muse

Sometimes the words just have to flow from pen to paper no matter the time on the clock. **hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

(smiles) Oh Oksana, I know just how you feel, sometimes right after I have a dream, I have to write it down immediately, even if it's 4 in the morning, and I don't stop until I have every part of the dream down! (kiss on cheek) Sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, we all love your beautiful words! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Oksana, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I know this feeling very well Oksana!  And, when my muse gets ideas for writing something there is no stopping her.  She hasn't been feeling well lately but I am sure she will be her old bubbly self soon.
Good write. Hugs, Nancy.
