My Dark Stranger 
I lie in the silence within the stillness on the darkest of nights, My brow furrows as I breath deeply and ponder my plight. I know I must leave to reclaim that which I've lost. To do this I will no matter the pain that is wrought. I lie in my bed seeking answers to my unspoken questions. Whoa! what's this? a voice in my head., could it be only imagined? Hazel eyes widen for but a moment in shocked surprise, As a sense of peace and of comfort begin to arise. Thick fringed lids become heavy, flutter, and lie still. Every deep breath taking me closer to that which I appeal. My dark stranger visits me again this thought filled night. Precious illusions of him a most welcome sight. My nightly visions begin to unfurl and take ahold. Overcoming me with emotions as his gentle embrace draws me close. Is he illusion? only a fantasy? a dream that will never come to be? As he turns to go; "don't leave me" heard softly spoken, my plea. Outstretched hand reaching, coming back empty with nothing but air. A soft gasp heard as I awake feeling completely alone and begin to despair. My brow creases as I think to myself, shall I bide my time till next he should appear? The answers evade me and I wait for what I'm not sure, losing him a constant fear. If only my dreams were not just that, illusion, surely I don't ask for to much. Others have asked for substantiantially more, and given rewards for such. But I fear that which I seek will never be mine. For even in my reality my dark stranger will decline. You see his face i've never seen, nor his voice have I heard. And yet I can picture his loving blue eyes rather clearly; it's almost absurd. He brings a smile to my face when my world has made me want only to frown. And a tickle in my tummy like the wings of a butterfly felt evertime he's around. My best friend who asks nothing of me, whom I find to be oh so charming and smart. A person whom I cherish and hold dear to my tender heart. I can't get him out of my head no matter how hard I try. And I find myself clinging to him knowing my heart will not lie. When dawn finally breaks he is often in my thoughts. Even when he's an enigma and my distress he has brought, I yearn for the comfort and joy only he can bring. |
