The morning sky was not blue
The fog screened the horizon
The sun did not appear at noon
The afternoon had a mist about it…
The evening came quietly,
Bringing with it a wind that chilled the bones
& then the night descended
The night I thought of you…
The night I felt away from you
The night my world fell apart
The night no amount of remembering the great moments helped
The night I felt I’d lost you forever…
The night I was angry with myself
The night my heart broke to pieces I couldn’t collect again
The night I hated myself for doing this to me all over again
The night I felt helpless & weak…
The night I realized I had made a habit of losing
The night I needed you, wanted you
The night I longed to dance with you
The night I needed your arm around my shoulder…
The night memories made the heart scream out
The night tears kept me warm
That was the night
The night it rained…
