Driving down this road least traveled you cross my mind as I gaze up at the sky and see stars shining brightly in the clear West Texas sky. I think back to the times we spent together. When we were closer to each other than our own skin. I think back to your tender kisses, your sweet caresses. I listen to Patsy Cline’s sexy voice singing “Walking after Midnight”. Now we are far apart with no hope of being together again.

Why are you still on my mind after all this time? Why do thoughts of your dark good looks still stir my heart? Why do I think of the way you would look at me and smile that sexy smile of yours? Why can I not get you off my mind?

Now I lay me down to sleep in this lonely cold bed. As I close my eyes your image comes to mind. I dream of your slow hand touching me. I dream that I hear your sexy voice telling me how you want to touch me. Then I wake up in this lonely bed and realize that you aren’t there and I fall back to sleep with tears in my eyes.

Tears falling, caressing my cheeks as your fingers used to do. Why are we no longer together? Loosing you has me wandering in this barren land. Traveling the road least traveled, wondering where it will take me now. I know that I would choose this road again knowing that I would loose you.

I look back in time and remember when I was wrapped in your love.
