At Night
(READ SLOW)
Eyes wide open
(laying like broccoli you would say)
Crisp
Icy nights
Cold
Even in the summer months;
Cold – (very cold)
Deep breaths in an empty room;
In – and out
(slowly)
Like smoke escaping a chimney;
Cool breath hits the atmosphere
………………………..
Darkness (Stillness)
A motionless and silent night
……………………….
(hours pass)
Thinking
Of you mainly
Memories;
A slideshow strewn with happy
Bittersweet though it is
………………………..
Thinking
(only of you now)
A strange – joyful sort of pain
Then… that feeling
(it crept up from nowhere)
All joy departed
And now… agony
Nothing but agony
Deep – Down to the bones
Fighting tears
Fail
Pouring out emotion
…………………………
Empty
Numb – and… relieved
Feeling…
Tired
Eyes closed
(Sleep) and dream of you
