Crumpled Thoughts
so many lines i’ve written
in the middle of the night
only to toss them
inadequate
simply not measuring up
to the depths of my feelings
their dull reflections lost
in the yearning of my love for you
seeking those perfect words
worthy of wings taking flight
to find their way across the sky
where you now sleep
