At night when the stars dim
letting you see inside
that failing comes to the surface
and you hope its not later.
The quick thoughts
of a natural excuse
one that makes you weep
for a better day.
So you sit in quiet contemplation
breathing in the air
of a night times coolness
like the touch of a lover.
But the kisses are not the same
because the dust on the photo's
dim your memeories
but not your beating heart.
