nocturnal waltz nothing is right tonight and i am out of sorts i try to sooth the edges, stroke them smooth instead i see you with my eyes closed but your touch is too far away even so, maybe especially so i share the song of you i dance in your dreams as you do mine silly thoughts make me smile, easing this restless spirit of me tonight and behind my eyelids i feel warmth from you to my body as you sing invitation when i open my eyes, you are there watching, smiling, moving with me from outside-in we are together our voices meld as my edges smooth, soothed and held by you close, we dance in the dark we dance sharing the night - Alison |

Such longing, such passion! I'm restless tonight too, but for very different reasons. It hurts when those arms ache and he isn't there. |

Those longings that occur in the night when for now you can just dance in the shadows, a pretty place and poem to be in |

Hot damn, excellent! This worked really well for me. REALLY well. -P Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand. |

Ohhh, dear Alison, I adore this kind of nocturnal waltz. When the intense yearning brings bits of dreams that seem more real than reality will ever be. You dance so charmingly with your words and you inspire. Love and hugs. Margherita |
