As midnight’s music melts in melancholy,
I see her as a memory,
hazy, indistinct in form,
a clouded reminisce of once touched dawn.
how can this be?
to stand before me like a shadowed dream
when once her beauty spoke to me,
beckoning from forth her eyes,
so beautiful, so rare,
and now, I am confused
not content to hide in slumber’s cave-
I feel no anger as I maunder
whil'st she stands in gauze of midnight's hour,
beyond the reach of memory's grasp.

(sigh) Awwwwwwww, this is soooooo beautifully romantic, sweet friend, may the comet tails continue to wag across the eyes of your heart cheerfully and come cruising out again and again through tears of happiness, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tim, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
