After Midnight

"I can't get my feet up off the edge.... I kinda like the little rush you get, when you're standing close to death..."

I started singing this song, then you started singing with me... "Like when you're driving me crazy. Hold on as we crash into the earth... a bit of pain will help you suffer when you hurt, for real... cause you were driving me crazy..."

The cold morning air blew my face. It felt nice...   "bite your lips, your words a robbery..." I realized, this was the first time we were together. Just talking.... "do you grin inside you're killing me.... All along we talked of forever..."  This is a great night... "I kinda think that we won't get better..."

The street lights sparkled like grounded stars. Our friends slept soundly, an occasional snore was heard every now and then.

"It's the longest start but the end's not too far away..." Let's just stay this way for a while longer.... "did you know, I'm here to stay..."

"we'll stagger home after midnight! Sleep arm in arm in the stairwell, we'll fall apart on the weekend! These nights go on and on..."

We both feel the satisfaction from the song. I was grinning inside. I don't usually like the night. For they plagued me with bad dreams... But tonight.... it was an exception. Not only was I spared from the terrors, but I was with you. I got my only wish... to spend a night with you...


We talked about a lot of things... and an hour before the sun threatened to reappear, you disappear. And after you walked out the door, my night ended. Sleep didn't come. I stayed awake until the sun appeared on the east. As people were waking up and getting ready to start the day, I sat on the balcony, reliving our conversation and how we both promised to remember the sight of everything that night.

As I got ready to disappear myself. I smile and took the sight in for the last time...  For we won't be back again....
