The Midnight Poetry
of Maggie E. Estes
I Will Not Break
You give to me impossible dreams .Dreams never before realized. You take me for who I am. While I just take you. And there in that moment, I will not break, I will not bend but give myself over to your impossible dreams…
Come lay beside me, my head on your shoulder, my heart beats with the rhythm of your breath. Hold tightly to my hand and let me dream the impossible … of forever with you…
I will let you inside slowly and my heart will rise and fall with each breath that you take. I give to you bits and pieces of myself for you to keep. Kiss me once more, long enough to burn the moment in my mind, this impossible dream.
And suddenly I wake with thoughts of you in my head, without you by my side. and an impossible dream in my heart. And there in that moment, I will not break I will not bend.
