Every Night I Wonder

Every night,from my little window I watch billions of stars luminating the blue-black sky And every night my thought is filled with you knowing you are somewhere there Somewhere in the same world In a better city,in a different time and in another day Every night I wonder about what you're doing in that moment Awaiting a new sunrise Drinking a hot cup of coffee Sitting in your back porch Planting tomato seeds or reading a newspaper I wonder if you're strolling on the side-walk on your way to work Or just chatting with a friend. Every night, I think of you I wonder if you ever watch the stars and think of me too. Every night. I wonder what it feels like If We could borrow just one night If We could borrow just one moment To feel your arms around me To feel my lips upon your lips To watch the stars that warm lone hearts Shine blissfully upon our faces Every night I wonder what it feels like Just to be with you.
Inspired by the song 'One moment in time'

Your lines are so alive and real. Munching them in my mind is the blessing I am receiving this moment. This is such an excellent share and I really do not know what more to say. A 7 definitely

This is so universal. Yes, I feel this one, I truly do. Distance is not distance in our hearts -- whether those miles come between family, friends or romantic partners. When we truly know someone, we intuitively sense what they are doing, thinking, though they are far, far away. Love sent to you, Suncatcher. xox

Very romantic, Charm. Borrowing a moment in time can be so inspiring, but in some cases it could be just a dream that stands no chance of fulfillment. Another beautiful poem...#7 rating. // paul
