Flickerings

 
Restless footsteps;  wandering paces--
Bewilderment in empty faces.
Lonely hearts and bleak despair--
Where are we going-'"Anywhere"?
Why do I feel like crying--
Whenever you're away?
Why does my heart keep sighing--
All the live long day.
How can I ease this painful stress?
Nobody else can ever guess--
How I fight this loneliness, without you.
The "special one" that's loud and clear,
Stands within my memory, dear.
--but if I ever mentioned who--
They'd be surprised to know it's "You."
Somehow, wherever I go, whatever I do--
A picture of you
Keeps flickering through my mind,
and winds around my heartstrings.
I awoke this morning
And you weren't there.
All of a sudden, my world seemed bare.
All me cries out in vain--
Until you pass this way again.

    1. Thanks for stopping by Nick. I appreciate feedback from the Master himself. I'd love to be the fly inside your brain assessing irrationality. Care to explain?
