Misunderstandings

A Little Night Breeze

A little night breeze

Suddenly all I need

Is the warm caress of the little night breeze

As it whispers and tumbles

And hushes and stumbles

And gently dusts away distance

From my half formed words

That escape in deadly secrecy

And softly slink through the long night

To a cold house, walled with impenetrable stone

Which sees everything and soaks it up

Unflinchingly

Slowly it releases its toxic memories in the silent night

With an unfeeling chuckle

My words slip past like a jail break

And give a tentative touch of your sleeping ear

That runs right through you

It whispers and tumbles

And hushes and stumbles

To your heart, this whisper, I love you

You cry your silent, secretive tears

Alone, unwatched
