This Night

by lawrence   Mar 6, 2004


Another night of loneliness
Echoes of despair
The air is all that’s listening
To silence this I share

Standing by the window’s edge
Breathing the air so free
Air that weaves the invisible walls
Binding the heart that’s me

The winds they danced with scents of you
Your touch caress my face
Yet formless winds my dreams are made
You vanish without a trace

Move on, my heart, the mind said so
With pain I say to you
This night, like winds, I will move on
This answer I hold true

Flowers they bloom, wilt too soon
There never is a reason
Winters pass, spring never last
It’s just a different season
