stranger in the day, lover at night


night time surrenders
followed by sun lit consequences
darkness encloses past concerns
and daylight streams softly through souls
no longer recognizable
to tired eyes and hazy brains
drunk on something not quite love
but close depending on the angle
reach to touch something that stirs
in the night
memorized outlines with hand prints
and blue prints and traces of
gentle but needy finger prints
can't connect in the day time
prime time
line of sight time
hands forget how to hold
and the alignment seems unnatural
meet only at certain hours
and make up for lost time
eyes that find each other
in low light
glance away and down
from the other
don't let them discover
what you have and
what you hide

*inspired by the song "stranger in the night"
and by "morn'" by doug*

hey,
dig.
especially "drunk on something not quite love
but close depending on the angle"
that feels spot on I think, nicely defines that blurry area. Also I'm flattered that you sited "Morn'" gives me a bit of a glow. cheers.
