Just one more word
One more breath
One more dirge
That I might cheat death

Sometimes in dreaming
Time stops streaming
I must be dreaming
These thoughts conceiving

Just one more wish
One more night
One more kiss
To set things right

Missing the ghost of you again
Here you come again
Back to where we begin
This night will never end

Just one more time
One more day
One more night
Before I throw it away

Sometimes in trying
We both are left dying
I hear you crying
And vainly keep trying

Guilty of expressionless crimes
Both of us, sometimes


(For my buddy. She knows who she is)

Jer, I LOVE this one...its sorta "cryptic" and also has this emotional longing weaved with in it... I love the last lines...and I SO relate...very nice...
stalking you always...with "intrigue"...

 you're really alone at last...
you're bored and fading fast,
if it's true you'll fall from the past
all you'll have to do is ask
you'll feel but never be
you want and always need
price you pay for wanting to see
will you have all you've ever dreamed...

Well, somebuddy oughta really like this....Wow.  It's beautiful - you said it so well, I can feel your longing and see the tears.  Wish you both well, and hope you find happiness.  Seems we're all looking for the same thing around here!  Hope there's enough to go around!  LOL

JML~

This line speaks volumes.

'Guilty of expressionless crimes
Both of us, sometimes'

Hope someone is listening.

I think, yes, I do believe, you need to write a book, just so I can keep you under my pillow...

Again, loved it!

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.
