Last Night

By KozMic BluEs

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I tried to sleep last night, And in the dark, I opened my eyes. I looked at you, lying there beside me. You were sleeping like a deer in a meadow. And I watched you. I lay there and watched you sleep. Because you were beautiful last night. You were enchanting. But as I leaned forward, To kiss you on your head, Goodnight. You vanished. Like the faint summers breeze through the trees. You vanished. And I thought I had died. Because darkness did surround. And loneliness will always provail. But you were never there. Only in my thoughts, Only in my dreams. Only in my heart were you ever there. And there you shall always be. Written March 4th, 2002 © on Mar 03 2002 08:30 PM PST   0 • 8
