it's been a long day. the butterflies fluttering so dreamily all day now stay still upon a wayward branch. birds are returning home into an ambrose sky. oceans breathe low and cornhusked air reaches your front porch. the midnight color dresses the rooftop of our home. hums of crickets sigh upon the passage of time. eras begin on such hushed nights.
sailors somewhere are taking turns for a night watch, and nurses somewhere are treating the injured under the burning oil. another day and, we have survived.
i rest my head upon the letters i wrote to you, hoping someday my words will memorialize the love i cannot express- as you sleep on an old rainy night, in your favorite lace sundress.
