In The Stillness Of The Night...
I tend to write my best when
There's a lump of sadness, lodged within my chest
I tell you
I've told her
I love her
I'll hold her
Until time is no more
Until we're the last two humans
Who are left, still walking alone on the shore
My love for her, has never been unsure
For that I'm sure
Our adventure started
With the twinkle in her eyes
I remember the rumor
Angels can move between the earth and the sky
Have you ever had someone say, "I love you"
Only to have yourself wonder why
Or wonder how you even qualify
For something so extraordinary
Much like the site of a comet in the sky
A shooting star passing by
The first kiss of your favorite human
While you lay hidden in the stillness of the night
Oh her smile is so bright
I'm but a moth
And she's the flame
That keeps burning my wings at night
My yearning for her love
Is what keeps me up at night
I've forgotten how to sleep
My days are meshed together
Mixed with darkness and the light
For far too long, I felt as though I was broken
And she would reassure me
And tell me it will all be alright
Then one day I awoke
And she had slipped away in the night
I scoured the earth
In search of the one soul
Who saw me
When I couldn't even see my light
She had become my light
She was wild like a flame
One which couldn't be contained
To this day, I can still hear her gently whispering my name
IF only I could do the same
Lift the veil
Kiss her forehead
And have her bear my name
Love....
