NaPoWriMo- Day 3: Vanilla Twilight Inspired

Note on the writing prompt: I basically put my zune on shuffle, came up with this and wrote what came to mind. I confess that I'd been thinking about this before, but I wrote it in the context of the song? blah. Read it. don't judge me.

His voice is clear in my ear,
His eagerness starts a pattering in heart
And in it, there’s a sad strange, desperation.
And worst still there’s searching and magnetism.

He seems to acknowledge the danger,
He knows that we should not happen.
Yet, he like all other before him, falls
Into the silken laughter and dark mystery.

And I am painfully aware of my fear,
I’ve just started to heal and yet I leap.
I am too afraid of falling to look before I jump,
But ever fiber of my being yearns for capture.

So I begin my freefall, my dangerous descent
Even as I know these things don’t work out.
Even as I know I should be cautious of dreams.
And more so, I should be cautious of saviors.

I am not waiting to hear your voice reaching out
But I am hoping that you are thinking of my own.
And I am hoping that you wonder where I am.
And I hope that you want me to think about you

My phone lies still and silent and I fear sleep,
I peak out at the black night, and still sky.
And for a moment, I really do feel very alone
But then I realize I’m no more alone than before.

More than yearning to hear that voice in my ear,
I can’t help this aching desire for him to be here.
So that I know I’m not imagining his interest.
So that I know I’m not alone in my fascination.

As you strum your guitar to break the silence,
I will breathe in sleep and breathe in loneliness,
And maybe, if you find yourself thinking of me
Maybe then, I will see you in one of my dreams.

Maybe in that reality, we can be together,
Maybe there, the world wouldn’t be an obstacle.
And there, we’ll be truly perfect for each other.
And even without that, I’ll think of you tonight.
