Conversations

Sleep laden eyes
light ridden night
calm and gentle
thoughts and feelings
in the quiet of the blackness
a sudden ring, a sound, an awakening
everything stops, the hand reaches out
the words in the ear
whispered somethings, quiet manythings
serious thought flows
and silly laughter follows
sometimes for hours
seldom in minutes
then it crawls on us
time overtakes
sleep till first light
and then we will commune again
