A night at work

by Bryan - Taurus

I worked and toiled my part last night, inbetween finding
     time to think on you...... thinking
I slaved for my wage on my last day yesterday, pausing when
     I could, working when I must
Washing windows and mopping floors you must think this 
     silly, forgotten existential
Putting away and taking back I spared as many moments as I 
     could drag up for you and I struggled to kill the 
     distraction of any loud patrons
Six hours of random consciousness and three hours of clear 
     water brain rantings
Ranting about love and the one I love, maybe aloud, maybe 
     internal
That one half hour I sat to swear the evening away and....
     sudden flood rush loved me home
Reality rediscovery and I saw on me the glow of "We"
"This is the hand of the man that loves her" I thought, 
     staring at my outstretched veined limbs
Vascular on the inside and flowing with all that I could 
     never explicate, vivid halo about my fingers, fiery 
     truth substantial
And I looked and thinking on you I dreamed like a dreamer,
     like you dream days and my nights
For what remained of my night and what was to come that 
     morning, whatever I did, sacrificing myself to your 
     mind altar
Dreaming.... dreaming.... thinking.... feeling

Reason for writing:

    The inspiration was a wonderful humyn being that I will never forget. She was with me always and always will be in one way or another.
