He needed her
at that moment
more than anything.
She did not know.
A tear shed
as darkness fell
around him 

As I walked down Main Street

I could feel the pulsating electrified energy

Like musical notes of life

The main vein of the city

You broke my heart
Left it hanging in the garden

Slowly

Painfully bleeding

As the rose thorns
Dug in 

Dusk is approaching

Many shadows appear

The night wanderers are lurking

Patiently waiting

To invade my dreams

Through the centuries
A second becomes a minute
Minutes to hours
Hours to days
Days to months to years
Just a rustle of time

Panic set in as undertow held me down Warned not to swim alone About to give up Strong hands Lift me to safety Breathe again

The silence
Too much to bare
The seconds tick away
Pain grows stronger
This is how I feel
I love you
Need just one word 
From you
