It's dark.....It's late....
And you feel so alone.
You're tired but you can't sleep;
You lie there, listening to your pulse
Race through your body
As you wait for your midnight angel to appear.
She's the one you love
Yet won't have.....
The one closest to you
Yet a world apart....
You anxiously await her arrival each night
In the dark sanctuary of your mind.
One look into her dark eyes
And you see her love for you......
One kiss from her sweet lips
And you taste her passion for you.....
One touch of her tiny hand
And you feel a jolt in your very being.....
A connection so strong
Neither time nor space and pierce it.....
A soul connection like you've never felt before--
And never will again.
Think hard enough
And you can smell her.....
Think harder still
And maybe you'll feel your midnight angel next to you
Instead of her.
Alas the sun rises and she must go,
Back to the secret corner of your mind....
You try to pretend she's not there just to get through the day
But the tiniest thing
Brings a flash, a glimpse
A vision of her......
And you wait once more for you midnight angel to appear
My mom died October 2; she had been in the hospital for 2 weeks, but it was still a shock because she was actually getting better, then crashed overnight. It's been really hard for me because (A) she's all I've had since my dad died when I was 2 years old and (B) we lived together. I know it's hard to find the right words to offer someone when the lose a loved one, but the stupidest question by far has been "How was the funeral?"
How was it? It RAWKED, dude! The dancing bears we had imported from a Russian circus really won everybody over! And since my brother works for a Budweiser distributor, the company loaned us the Budweiser Clydesdales to pull Mom's casket to the opposite fucking side of town! We were going to have Chippendale dancers at each end of her casket, but thought that might have been a bit over the top....
If you don't know what to say, just say "I'm sorry for your loss" and LEAVE IT AT THAT!!!!!!!
