ALONE IN THE NIGHT



ALONE IN THE NIGHT
A BED BECOMES VERY COLD.
LYING AWAKE AMONG THE SHADOWS
UNSATISFIABLE PASSIONS RACE THROUGH THE HEART.
RECALLING THE FRAGRANCE OF BEAUTIFUL FLOWING HAIR
MERELY TO INHALE THE ARID SCENT OF A DUSTY ROOM.
ATTEMPTING TO CARESS SOFT WARM SKIN
DISCOVERING THE COLDNESS OF ICY LINEN.
IMAGINING LUSCIOUS KISSES FROM MOISTENED LIPS
THE HUNGER INTENSIFIES.
BEAUTY IS ENVISIONED IN THE MIND
TEMPORARILY TRANQUILIZING THE SOUL.
SLEEP RELIEVES ISOLATED EMOTIONS
SAVED FOR ANOTHER DAY WITHOUT YOU.
