1:39 AM ● fool

grinning like a fool in the dark
where no one knows your secrets or your fears
the tears you shed cascade skin and cotton
your sobs fall on deaf ears
grinning like a fool in the dark
where pain and love entertwine and separate
the heartfelt sentiments spoken to ghosts
reverberate; disparate
grinning like a fool in the dark
where scent, touch, taste and sound combines
the feel of another, their breath, their warmth
where whispered words are not just lines
grinning like a fool in the dark
you come to peace with wind and rain and snow
the power of a breeze to chill the skin or the virginal snows landscape
peace with the highs and peace with the lows
grinning like a fool in the dark
I've come to realize you're not the one
the one I dreamt of; soft hands and feathered kisses carressin me like a revered deity
I realized I'm not in love
