Evening air hangs thick,
As dreamers count starless skies
Questioning lovers alibies,
Shedding silent testimonies of bitterness----
Wondering what wasn't enough.
In this stillness they sit,
Stewing in regret.
Poets bleed ballads onto paper napkins,
Begging for sleep-----
Passing time until forever steps in.
Then, midnight dust encroaches all,
As dreamers dreams begin to slip
Sinking deep within the ground,
Seeds of desperation take root-----
Stupifying strainds of intelligent thought.
In this darkness they throw fits,
Musing over what could have been.
Slack jawed Casanovas write music,
Singing lyrics sweet----
Stinging ladies ears.
With the approach of dawn,
Those cursed awake
Accept their fate-----
Resolving themselves to lonliness,
But not sadness.
For morning light brings truth
That sometimes we must wait,
Having faith that our words will be recognized----
Soulmates taking hands,
Enticing dreamers to dance with them
While damning the chill of the night air;
Walking hand in hand into the dawn.
