The night weaves over stealthy in pace
She dreams of stardust and golden haze
Of molten eyes behind quivering curtains
As lover sighs into the night's elixir.

She meets him under velvety cloaks
Each embrace a lovely song
A world of love each gesture
Two hearts never closer have ventured
To have eyes a pair and not see with one
To have veins running through
Yet to not feel through for once
Such passion the soul's yet to know
In ebbs and flows, one finds it's One.

One day it shall all ebb away
What remains is bound to stay
Trespasses untold and unforgotten
Forlorn melodies achingly beautiful
Shall live on forever in plaintive memory .
