Listening to every heart

Midnight Becomes

A pass fulfilled lightly, one tick,
Yesterday bars some memory, just like
That moment of thought
You blinked away, was it set

That deep inside?  Did you wrangle it
Tightly, holding feverishly to its slip,
As points click-ticked, tricked you
Into watching time undressing,
Again,

Did you find it pleasing?  Would you
Fall leaving behind summer shadows
Of greener winds and sky flung rivers,
Just to follow before it, itself, fell
Headlong
Into tomorrow
As grandfather clocks begin to strike?

Will you hear some cry?

Midnight becomes a
Silent tongue, if it is silenced
With your lips, once again…

Midnight becomes
Shadows of you, leaning
Over this balance
You call
Me.

Lovely lovely weaving, Karilea. Very magical and the style is...well, it just reaches through the glass, it does.

Hope all is well with you! Things are not so good here, but I'll get through it.

This one really draws in the reader:

“Midnight becomes a
Silent tongue, if it is silenced
With your lips, once again…”

Wonderful write!
Enjoyed.
