I went walking again last night in the silence,
Tired of being home, tired of being alone,
I’m Tired of pretending to still be in love with him.
I am only harboring peace I guess in a land where I have been forgotten.

I stood in front of your door I deeply breathed and sighed then I just kept going my own way.
The dog kept me honest in my wake……
Trails and tribulations in my path to partake. Gladly I accept them as my own.
To Love you again, would be unfair, But there you are motioning your come hither.
Oh Yes, How loudly I can hear you

Temptation echoes deep into the night
And as I follow on in the silence of the streetlight I can hear heart your beaconing to me.
At home once again, I crawl back into bed with out you to hold.

A melancholy piece with the images very realistic and easily perceived.

Nicely presented
