Night Wish

 

                                                    I’ve come to gaze upon a star,

                                                    and wish you back to me.

                                                    All pain has been forgotten.

                                                    The wounds have healed,

                                                    the heart repaired.

                                                    My arms are open wide.

                                                    I’ll wrap you tight in love’s caress,

                                                    until we greet the dawn.

                                                    Then I'll have to let you go.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

sorrow unfolds

_ _ _ _ _

draw tight the blinds against the light
no illumination needed

to sit alone
in mournful desolation

I listen as the leaves unfurl
to flutter in the breeze

sounds echo murmurs of despair
residing in my heart
