The Need for Honesty after Midnight.

The need for honesty after midnight.
When the clock hits one minute before
It begins..
My head races.
So fast.
Faster than a kentucky derby winner...
faster than the winds of Hurricane Katrina...
so
fucking
fast.
My heart beats strong.
So firmly..
better than the little drummer boy everybody sings about around Christmas.
I need honesty in this hour.
I'm sick of talking endlessly about my wants.
This time I need.
For your eyes to meet mine and just be..
simple.
truthful.
honest.
I can't do this dance around anymore..
where we touch on lies, and go off hopes...
and really never know where each other's feet are.
or where we stand.
Stop Moving.
Start telling.
I NEED to sleep.
I could go without honesty in the mornings when I wake up..
I am busy..
I have many things to do...
I will find thoughts to occupy my mind..
But right now it is midnight and
I'm begging you to let me sleep
for once.
Please.
Put me to sleep finally.
with some honesty.
