Just one of those nights...

AFTER THE SECRET FALLS

here waiting
for you I 
wonder
when will this end
where will you
end with me
or shall I
stay here wondering
if I shall come
to you and be
with you today or 
if night
will fall alone
again and always
will I end 
alone today
whispers whispers tell me true
shall I love shall it be you
will you tell me
will I say
what my love must be today
thunder thunder tell me not
if you have me in your thoughts
am I drowning
am I stone
am I waiting here alone
standing, standing I do not 
see you anymore
