Light of moon,

Shine on me

Enraptured,

In your fantasy

Shadowed face,

Mysterious glow

Illuminate,

An open window

Allow the night

To sail inside

As stars,

Together,

Slowly glide

Yes, brighten up

A world of gloom

I feel inside

This empty room

I dwell in your darkness

Enticed by the fire

That does not burn me

You fascinate my eyes

Hours spent in endless drifts

Of visions through the night

I lose direction, ever following

As the colors blend to ebony

And my sight blends into you

Closing, slowly extinguishing

The brilliance of your light

Silhouettes in night

Lovers delight under stars

Shining in darkness

Lines across his face foretell, forgotten times, he knew so well

Shadowed visions haunt his skin, faded, buried deep within

A darkened mind, lost in space, the shredded features of his face

Flashing by like meteors, reaching down into his core

Celestial ebony, blackness of night, knowing he’d never again see the light

Shining, in an unforeseen glow, sightless, he fights, as the memories flow

It’s hollow in the darkness
Where thoughts and fears collide
The rapid beating of my heart
That tears me up inside

Can you hear my silent cries?
Soft whispers in the night
Do you hear me calling you?
When things don’t go just right

Don’t leave me here, alone,
Again, I cannot face the day
These battles, much too hard to win
My body, worn and frayed

Answers to my questions
Left lingering in air
I’m asking for your comfort, please!
Just let me know you’re there

A sign to reassure me
Everything will be alright
It’s hollow in this darkness
I need to see your light
