Poetry / strange fire

at night
the memory of you
smoulders within me
like the remains of some strange fire
built long ago

it is a curious feeling

sometimes
in the still of the night
I cry out
frightened and confused
feeling like a child
who is not quite awake
and yet not asleep
alone in the shadows
drifting helplessly between alternate worlds
of dreams and realities

in the darkness of my universe
the embers of this strange fire
become a galaxy of sad stars
lighting my way
