I just felt the night cut through me
Call my name & let me feel
Like all the world out there awaits
For my hands to make it real
True
I felt it cut through me
That restlessness like before
& all I wished for that moment
Was to run out & explore
But in a dream that came then
She softly whispered in my ear
“It’s too late to go out there,
Where hearts in pain disappear”
& I pulled her closer, tighter
Just like the way life was before
& then she said “If you’re so wild;
You’ll always have me to explore”
& I awoke – to a new dream
More real but somehow not true
Wishing to be somewhere else
As hands moved from twelve to two
but I awoke; it went away
The beast was tame, sounds of night low
& I remained, waiting again
The silent death of afterglow

This was no exception.
“It’s too late to go out there,
Where hearts in pain disappear”
