If You Can...

It's Only Paper

No Kisses Today

No kisses today. 

The lingering effect of 

yesterday's bad day. 

When out of your way

I stayed.

Upstairs I hid. 

That is what I did. 

Did not want to see. 

Just so happy your wrath was

not because of me.

Slipped between 

empty sheets. 

Escaping into a fitful sleep. 

Not my battle so

to Sandman's land

I did retreat. 

The night was long. 

Awake before dawn

to you, 

below,

caressing 

tight strings

and

singing

a song.

Half asleep I hummed along. 

Slowly back

to sleep I drifted. 

Barely feeling 

the covers

you lifted.

No kisses today. 

No mood to play

but still your arms 

pulled me 

your way.

Two Petty

But It Was All Wrong

                                                                                   

I dreamed

a little dream

but

it did not

come true.

There was a

lover in the dream

                                                                                 

but he wasn't you.

Sadly he wasn't you.

He was tall and strong

but

it was just all wrong.

There was no you.

There was no you.

It felt as if my heart

would break

as he so

gently took

me in his arms.

It was all wrong.

It was all wrong.

His back was broad.

His legs were long.

But he wasn't you.

But he wasn't you.

There was nothing

he could do

to take that away.

It was just not the same.

It was just not the same.

Happy was I 

when the daylight

came

and

he didn't remain.

He wasn't you.

He wasn't you.

For me

there was nothing

he

could do.

I dreamed a little dream

but

it did not come true.

Sadly it didn't come

true.
