Nights Thrice Since

[yakksoho]

I'll hear you sing Unbridled's Song
__to sleep, I'll find the places
__you hide our eyeless faces
In dreams I once slept
Next to you
__each night since Wednesday morning
Kingdom Come! I heard the sun
And tasted soft the air and o, up
There were birds reflecting
__all the silent words I
__braided in your hair.
Would you believe I dreampt and wept
Next to you
__each night since Wednesday morning
saw sun's silkswept shadows scan
__the lonely empty places
__between our eyeless faces
Felt the lashes crash and tear the
hours there despite the dawns disgraces---
---Replace dusk with light.
__I'll hold the place you left, undress
__your face, erase my eyes to paralyse
The sun, should I misplace his hours
__trace the silhouettes of flowers
__who will close their eyes together
Next to you
__forever every Wednesday night.

Post Script: Reading Words has been amazing lately! Everyone here is incredible!

I love all your stuff anyway...but this line was really elegant, I wanted to quote it.
