A Long Forgotten Word
The night fell like the curtain on closing night. I acted out the goodbye scene until you agreed to let me stay. You fell asleep quickly. I listened to your quiet breathing. I watched the rise and fall of your chest. And I knew I should have gone home. When morning came and you awoke I was there. I brought my lips to yours, hoping for a warm response. Instead, I felt nothing but closed lips. Your tongue lay hidden, unmoving. Giving in to its inability to form A long forgotten word. A long forgotten word, a whisper in the night. A love once lost, now fades from sight. I search for it, a yearning deep inside. A silent plea, a heart that can't abide. A long forgotten word, a whisper in the night. A love once lost, now fades from sight. I search for it, a yearning deep inside. A silent plea, a heart that can't abide. The night fell like the curtain on closing night.
