1am - adrift

why is it so easy to lose ourselves in the middle of the night?

...we are greater than the expectations
of who we are thought to be...

do we continue on our path, without explanations, without reasons
without apologies?

do we ever truly see the people around us?
or is our sight coloured with our
needs
wants
desires

eve

connection
I had lost myself
down roads of obligation
and found, in silence

I am one that needs quiet
a bit of silence
to hear the sky change colours
the light find the edge of a cloud
or to hear the song of my being
I need that stillness of soul
to feel the currents of my thoughts
and go where they lead
the people I feel most comfortable with
are the ones that can be there with me

silent night
starry night
in between
dark and light

[try and figure that one out...they come, as they come]
