Long nights, close nights

????Laying down,
Closing eyes,
Next to someone?
FLASHBANG!
Mesmerised.

Laying down,
Time to doze,
All alone?
Anxiety snapping open your eyes.

Getting up,
Screaming in pain,
All alone?
Crimson rain.

Getting up,
Sleepy eyes,
Next to someone?
Work time?
Mesmerise.

Making coffee,
Yawning wide,
All alone?
Or side by side?

Mornings.
Ritualistic.
Those damn sweet characteristics.

Makes a difference, love, does it not?

Can leave you on cloud 9,
Or leave you alone,
Or together forever,
Silent nightly dine.

Whats the sign?
When you pine?
When they make you feel in your prime?
When they make you lose your mind?

Are the fights worth it?
Making things turbid,
The love making hearts race,
Like electricity surging?
Doesn't that sound perfect?

This is,
Your choice.
Your path.
Your life.
Your heart,
Your soul,
Time to make things last.

    An unusual piece but quirky flow of thoughts liked the random rhyming and the way that it takes the reader through topic related musings. Best wishes Milly

    I like this format and your word choice, like a trail of random thought from mind to page.
