. Poetry from The Great In-Between: Whispers in the silence

Whispers in the silence

 


Just as painful memories 


Within the hidden and carefully compartmentalized cells


In my complicated mind 

Calls


Soon as the dark shroud of night

Falls


When the world is rendered all serene and speechless


Just before Morpheus The God of Sleep

Arrives 


With his eternal Suitcase of Dreams


He's carried from The Great In-Between


To hypnotize

With sweet truths and lies


All that sleeps

Unseen


Every day

Every hour


Every moment in my power


I’m always thinking of you 

My beautiful Queen 


The one I once met 

As I walked alone


By The Red Churches

Black Wrought Iron Old Gates


Like it was our preordained fate
