ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MIDNIGHT
A poem for Marina
By C.E. Hibbard
December 2nd 2016
On the other side of midnight
I dream about your face
About all the times that we’ve made love
and the many meals we’ve made
I believe you are the one thing
That can free this tender heart
On the other side of midnight
Is the perfect time to start
On the other side of midnight
Your voice invades my dreams
Whispering words of love and trust
It’s even better than it seems
I’ll be a proper man for you
I’ll try to stand up true
On the other side of midnight
I can’t stop lovin’ you
On the other side of midnight
I feel your skin beneath my palm
Like alabaster moonlight
Velvet-lined and warm
Won’t you be my soul mate
Won’t you be my queen
On the other side of midnight
You’ll see what I mean
On the other side of midnight
I’ll sing sweet songs to you
I’ll hold you close and keep you safe
And my thoughts will remain true
You can dance and swing
You can pluck your strings
On the other side of midnight
You can wear my diamond ring
The Kitchen Sink 
lucky lady
