you killed me last night, <br />perhaps that was enough... <br />to make up for all those nights <br />left to sleep alone! <br />when i awakened with eyes <br />that darkness had kissed, <br />i saw hearts beating, <br />and an owl pouring coffee! <br />trees conversed, branches intertwined, <br />and the creek sang to the wind. <br />now dogs spoke of god <br />with learned eyes... <br />while thunder undressed lightning! <br />and the hollow in my cheek <br />that bore your name... <br />filled with fireflies glowing... <br />fingers walked by carrying souls, <br />i looked, but could not find yours!<br /><br />Eric Cockrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-looked-3/
