nightcap, anyone?
A.M.: Until last night/this morning, I had never had a dream so intense that it left me lonely when I awoke.
like your favorite mixed drink
shaken, not stirred, from my dream
that was once cool and refreshing,
that loosened me up to giggle a little
a truth serum of sorts with a bit of a buzz
that left me as I awoke
with a slight headache and a mild hangover
yet a surprisingly acute memory of bits and pieces of last night
like your favorite mixed drink
i was shaken, not stirred
from surreal to real
short snippet
It’s so hard to leave something easier behind
For possibilities never clearly defined.
Because I still see that you are unhappy but free.
Are you adorning the future with rose-colored glass?
Or are you more comfortable never leaving the past?
Every song I've heard tonight reminds me of you.
Every song I sing is farther from what's true.
But I forge ahead, I forget what's been said.
And I pray that tomorrow I will wear a new face --
Either back in your arms or far away from this place.
