Her Voice In the Night

A dark day a twisted sky the lightning crashes the rain falls in sheets and I am alone but for the memory of you a soft curl of dark red hair a soft kiss on a freckled cheek the light glinting off of hazel green eyes I am alone and yet you are with me calling my name in the middle of the night sending me a faint whiff of your favorite perfume Oh how I miss you Oh how I long to hold you once more Oh how I long for your love

I love the blend of these lines: "but for the memory of you a soft curl of dark red hair"

"Thank you Francis, very glad it appealed to you. She was exactly the blending of those lines, soft, and curly, and red of hair, and I still welcome the hauntings of her memories."
