This night my love, to miss you most
To stir inside of tributary thoughts
Particles that will not settle, or lie flat
Against my will, like rustling leaves
In the wind...a disturbance

This night, when I would travel
By foot into the darkness
Pressed against your chest
To hear the drumming of
Life within my own heart
In the wind...a distraction

This night my love, to miss you
To wander restless in the caverns
Downy cotton, floating helplessly
Drifting in a wonderland
In the wind

Like a dream too large
and lost

. . . unsettling . . .

May love and light always shine upon you!

I see that we brought out a little bit of
our creativity last night......

A beautiful poem,  such a thought to have
within and the hope of the moment shared.

ThisDiamond,
This is indeed a diamond.
A beautiful lonely write, liked it immensely.

In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward".

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy
