Love Poem: Up Until Midnight

Up Until Midnight

Up until midnight am I
looking for a rhyme
It's late I say 
to bed I should lay.

It used to be 
up until midnight I was 
with a lover you see
but no longer is he.

Alone I lay with my thought
instead of pleasure sought
it's now words at play 
Instead of a roll in the hay.
