Thoughts at Midnight
IT lurks beside your dreams, beneath the shaded garments;
Blankets strewn and hanging; they form IT.
My heart! My heart is rapid for the first time! I love this book.
Stupid book! Sleep.
A pause.
Rest.
Why can’t I sleep?
Ahh last night. Last night was amazing. You were here, an inch from me.
Or less.
Your arm; my pillow. Your length; mine. I snuggled closer; my nose buried in your softness. I glanced at you from time to time. Sleeping. Breathing steady and heavy.
My hand danced downward. Where you left it. Oh my. I’m there again! So soft; a small finger wrapped aroung the head.
Mmm. And I pressed my wholeness into you. Hard. It was good, baby.
It was enough. It was my swoon; My only;
It was your dreams; your midnight stirs;
My everything. My all.
And here I lay again, alone as I should be, but this time with your memory.
And you lie somewhere now with your sweetheart.
And all I have are my thoughts at midnight.

Beautiful and sensual and real. Love it.
You are very good at writing Daryl… Very vivid and very I can almost picture some of thing things you are describing. I can imagine how unsure you sometimes are in your actions, but it feeling so right at the same time. You are a very honest and passionate person. Very well writen! Well done!
Thank you Andy. Unsure but feeling right is definitely a good description of this particular night!!

You got that across, very well! I felt like you were wanting to do things, and although you felt like you could, you were almost cringing with worry at doing them… Hesitating and maybe even pausing as you move to where you want to be. Pushing the boundries a little further. You said “I’m there again” and “back where you left it” but I felt like this was the first time, at least with this person. Do I read in to this too much? :-)
No…you read into this just right i think ;) well…
sort of…! I think what you wrote is more true than you realise!! =)
