Night

Hello night,

I discover you in my soul.

My body aches with tenderness,

your sleepy dreams

filling my eyes.

 

I am closing the curtains to daytime,

warming to your embrace.

 

Sweet night,

you are dancing with my memories,

casting colors in my mind.

I am dreaming rainbow dreams,

they are dripping with your heartbeat.

 

Hello night,

your seduction pulls me in.

I grow drunk on midnight poetry.

I betray all order.

 

Sweet night,

I am wrapped around your finger.

These mysterious temptations

drift into me like feathers.

 

Hello night,

I will never be the same.

Now I know your stardust,

there is no moving on
