Love's Eternal





Eternal whispers
a lover's verse
softly traverse
the universe

 
close your eyes
make a wish
count to three
imagine me
 
the moon appears
a guiding light
she knows the night
and sets her sight
 
close your eyes
make a wish
count to three
look for me
 
time stands still
but not for long
feel the song
it can't be wrong
 
close your eyes
make a wish
count to three
stay with me
 
upon the table
all laid bare
heart declared
said the prayer
 
close your eyes
make a wish
count to three
fight for me
 
the moon bows
a moment passed
no reason asked
the die was cast
 
close your eyes
make a wish
count to three
remember me
 
there is no night
there is no day
all the wishes fade to grey
 
I'd have loved you anyway.

Pawn




Within the dark she knows me well
it's where I hide, it's where I dwell
you cannot blame me, though
for living what I know
 
paint me up, dress me down
feed me lies, watch me drown
take away all sense of time
reduce me to a pantomime
 
silent cries or deaf of ear
the story of an unchecked tear
I travel through the darken night
she denies me her moonlight
 
past to future, dusk to dawn
it's all the same, the heart's a pawn
I give it up, the ultimate price
and roam the alleys of sacrifice.

LoveMoonStars


~ LoveMoonStars ~
 
Under languid stars
and a lazy moon
a hopeful breeze stirs
it whispers "soon"
 
upon moss and heather
faeries dance and spin
an enchanted place
for time to begin
 
the night echoes
down to your soul
you hear the calling
it makes you whole
 
follow a heartbeat
is it yours? is it mine?
destiny awaits
where love, moon
and stars entwine.
