Badnight


In my dream I began to think of a lost relationship.
She had gone away not loving me enough to stay.
She was my companion and my lover and at one time we just loved to hold each other.
She was a sensual delight to embrace and hold all thru the silky night.
And everything felt alright everytime she said "goodnight."
If I listened closely I could hear her heartbeat
and she would always whisper in my ear so soft and sweet.
Sensuality was loving sexuality til suddenly she was gone from me.
The relationship far gone from my sight.
Heartbreak found me alone at night in misery
yearning for her to be the one still lying next to me.
trying to stop all this pain and crying desperately
realizing I'm still all alone at night with no one to kiss and hold me tight
and remembering the night she said her last goodnight
and realizing if things get any worse
this will definately be another one of those
badnights.

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
