Dark nights and late sunsets

by Bonnie Rose   Jun 7, 2006


It seems every time,
this tool of paper and pen,
is used to your name,
the thoughts just leak,
into this lake,
a lake in which i cannot swim
in fear of what is unknown
if vines will wrap around my ankles
drag me down
take me there
to the consequences
of your reactions
theres no way i could handle
losing you,
and last night i sat up until 5am
even saw the dawn out shutters
never knew how early it rose
slightly surreal, going to sleep, under blue skies
and i promised myself,
i would tell you, so i will
i love you,
i love everything you are
i love the parts i hate
tonight i don\'t want a fairytale
I\'ll dream the nightmare
back in the lake,
and maybe you could just
throw me a line.
