The Voice at Midnight. Speaks.

 

Press play before reading. Salute.

(A lone voice whispers)

It's a strange thing, human emotions

They creep up like thieves in this endless night sky

Memories whispering to me like a loving stranger

For in deep moments of reflective solitude

I still think of her

Will she ever think and silently,

Whisper back to me 

As I remember her in here 

By the sacred Chislak Mountains

A warrior princess 

I once saved and who for a short while once stayed

Every night and

Especially 

In the early

Morning breeze 

And just over there as the twinkling midnight stars 

Bid their heartfelt goodbyes

Within your blazing passionate dark eyes

As you hear or read this

I hope I’ll live on 

And always once more come alive

To continuously 

Remind you of 

How happy 

We used to be 

The beloved memories 

Poetic stories and all

The goofy crazy laughter

So much happiness 

And joy

To echo from now into here

The Hereafter 

All caught in all the many old 

Photographs of me

You may still treasure and see

My sacred one named Tazanna 

I may now dance in here around the firestones

Amongst long lost galaxies 

Or unknown faraway stars

But whenever you think of me

I'll always appear 

I hope

Like a soft feeling

A subtle gust of wind

Or a white feather

A familiar yell or sensation

Wherever you are

Across this earth

Or simply hidden

Within any great nation

I may be now 

Part of the

Unknown In-Between realms 

But my love for you 

Will simply last 

Forever 

From this life to the next

For we were once 

Baptized somewhere ethereal by unknown angels to be 

Together

For we are eternal 

And one day by the Holy River

We will be reunited 

For now, I know and feel your aura

My twin soulmate called Tazanna

And all I can do is wait and cry a praise of adoration 

To The Almighty and shout Hosanna

For next to the Silver City

We will be reunited 

So I'm told in spirit 

For this life is simply a re-introduction

A sometimes cruel rehearsal 

And unknown to each other

We were once simply wondering

Lost 

Like so many others

In the Burning Circles of the Paranormal 

Before we all enter a new place

Where there are hopefully 

No more painful hurdles
