Day Two
It's day two
but really day four hundred ninety two
where my first thought is of you
where my eyes open
and picture your blues
still floating in my dream
desperately I scroll
thru every last page
every scene
still scrambling in my brain
not knowing where we left off
so I begin again
knocking on your door
lost on a road unkown
only hoping to find my way
you offer up a place to stay
and I oblige
your fire simmers against the chill
as our steam it gently sways
and we talk into the night
no questions, no answers, no right
you choose the perfect song
and we dance, and we dance
and we dance
entwined we drift away
but really day four hundred ninety two
where my first thought is of you
where my eyes open
and picture your blues
still floating in my dream
desperately I scroll
thru every last page
every scene
still scrambling in my brain
not knowing where we left off
so I begin again
knocking on your door
lost on a road unkown
only hoping to find my way
you offer up a place to stay
and I oblige
your fire simmers against the chill
as our steam it gently sways
and we talk into the night
no questions, no answers, no right
you choose the perfect song
and we dance, and we dance
and we dance
entwined we drift away

A very lovely expression that every reader can relate to, Tim. The dance goes on long after the music stops.

I absolutely love the imagery of steam dancing as lovers. This is gorgeous, Tim! :-)

aaah Brother I would love to drift away dancing in this wonderful hallucination.........er, dream
Love the flow and feel to this spill
Love this stanza:
" your fire simmers against the chill
as our steam it gently sways
and we talk into the night
no questions, no answers, no right "

Great write as usual Tim. No music to be heard. Just Minxy humming a familiar tune softly to herself. Dancing a duet with a partner unseen.

"still scrambling in my brain

... a nice way of putting 'how two become one' - like it

Thanks Josh, it's those moments we wake from a great dream and want to continue on but can't.
