It was raining in my dream last night. How else would I be unable to see you? Drowned out by the drip drop of an overcast sky. It’s always dark gray around this time. Having to take shelter in my usual safe places. Somehow, I still can never stay completely dry. You would think by…

She dreamt a dream that night. That did not fade with the light. Removal of gloom. An empty room. She dreamt that death was not the end. That there are some bad things that good could offend. Dark mark removed. Good ending assumed.

If this were all a dream, It would not be so bad. Pain gone with a sigh. Lit by the soft neon glow of a night light. Wrapped up somewhere uniquely safe. *** But not this life. Maybe the next. For memories last longer than a dream, And pain is strong enough to break through…

She tried every night. Pulling back to that place of solitude. Where pain could not reach. To where there were no secrets to keep. Watched over by a blanket of eternal stars. *** She tried in order to connect. To match that eternal love. Sometimes, to dare and whisper a dream. Hope to ask for…

The moon always comes again. Yet I have run out of feelings to feel. These days I only wake to sad vibes. Trying to live when those dreams bring more comfort. Like a delayed hug from the past. Yet, I’m tired of dreaming. *** I just want to live. Not holding on until yet another…

There is something strange about that time. That period between activity and sleep. Where my heart is splayed open. Audience of one. No mercy given for poor actors. Reality fallen out of time. Felt like I saw the light a year ago or was it a second? Funny how it can take the dark to…

This is just one big road trip I never planned. Been here. Been there. Been where you are. Been where my headlights are the only light under the cloud covered night. Funny how the stars almost never shine when you are alone. I did not start out as the driver, sometimes still not. Asleep in…
