Goodnight
And in this goodnight
know that in this evening
I saw you

Not the blue shirt
not even the onyx pools
but through them
into places never seen

Goodnight
And in this goodnight
Know that I I heard you
Through stationary lips

Below breath
Behind heartbeats
I heard your song
Its cadence mixed with my own

Goodnight
Sweet good night
And sweeter still
The sound of good morning




...but I digress ...


yes there is something sweet and wrenching about good nights.
