and in the twilight of my life when my world will be partially illuminated where there is neither darkness nor light all I ever wish to have is that single speck of light, that single spark of joy with you for I love you from the morn’ of my soul ’till the dusk of my breath and I will love you even more in the midnight of my being when the whole world is in perfect silence my heart screams loudly of your name like it’s the last word I am gonna utter your name and yours alone
what does your “how are you?” really means I could take on the basic route and say “I’m fine thank you, how ‘ bout you?” or I could break it down to how bad my day went with work messing up with my stress level at the highest peak
and
I could maybe tell you I’m not really well and that I probably needed some rest oh, well I am not sure if that’s what you want to hear I really am not sure but yeah, I’m fine I always am
what does your “hey, just dropping by” means? I could take it easy and say “by all means come in” or I could break it down to details and say, a visit with some lovely good food would be much appreciated or maybe you can stay a bit longer this time watch some movies, or simply join me as I scribble over sweet nothings
or
maybe I could say, nahh I’m really not in the mood for social interactions right now I just needed to be alone, be alone with my thoughts, with my heart, with my soul oh, well I am not really sure if that’s what you want to hear, but please come in by all means
and hey,
have you ever wondered what my “how are you?” means, or what “just dropping by” for me is?
it means
a million over “I love you” a million over “I miss you”
how long has it been? I can’t remember I only have my memories of you, of you and your “how are you?” and “just dropping by”
The prompt for the day is to write a poem in the form of a “to-do list.” The fun of this prompt is to make it the “to-do list” of an unusual person or character. For example, what’s on the Tooth Fairy’s to-do list? Or on the to-do list of Genghis Khan? Of a housefly? Your list can be a mix of extremely boring things and wild things. For example, maybe Santa Claus needs to order his elves to make 7 million animatronic Baby Yoda dolls, to have his hat dry-cleaned to get off all the soot it picked up last December, and to get his head electrician to change out the sparkplugs on Rudolph’s nose.
