Midnights

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

Because I've got you on my mind

Almost all of the time

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

Before I met you

I never dreamt of singing

Then it was two in the morning

And a song I was writing

I never strummed a string

On any wooden guitar

I never thought my fingers would bleed

Or my words go so far

Until your words stuck in my head

And your perfume lingered in my car

Now I am singing your song

Crafted beneath the early morning stars

Wondering to myself

Do you lay awake smiling from afar?

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

Because I've got you on my mind

Almost all of the time

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do

My mind cannot fall

With the descent of the night

For the memory of your eyes

Shines brilliant and bright

And the quips of your tongue

Are stuck on replay

Pulling my thoughts along lines of fun

Stirring my imagination until a new day

While my heart still lies in surprise

At the subtle way your beauty

Stormed through my life

Leaving me staring at my ceiling

Wishing I could wish you goodnight

I hope your midnights

Do not keep you up as late as mine do...

A/N:

Anyone know how to get rid of the double spacing when pasting into Wattpad? Very annoying, along with the loss of hard returns and other formatting obfuscations...argh.

Anyways, can you relate to this poem? Did you like it? Is it worth a vote or do you need to skip to the next one already?

Thanks for reading,
