In the Night

His eyes bright as fireflies
Half-lidded and glinting
So sweet, I cannot deny
I cannot fight how fast I'm sinking
Soft lips, soft touch, soft tips
Breath hot and deep in my ear
The world fades and memories mist
Too overwhelmed for me to hear
Oh! And his voice is a god and
Oh! What a beautiful sound
My vision swims when he takes my hand
Presses it to his chest, soft as down
And oh! His voice sings
Oh, how fine!
He raises himself on graceful legs
Kisses intoxicating as olden wine
He lays me down gently on the softened grass
The stars sparkle but his eyes glitter more
Caresses and I tremble, as the fingers pass
Until I'm his to my core
The moon overhead shines so bright
Shining off his hair, there's a halo of silver
My own lovely angel, so beautiful a sight
The world stills and only will whisper
And we dance, too joyful for lovemaking, too gentle for sex
His voice echoes in the glade, and in my mind
We hold and laugh and love but no rest
For there's never been a nighttime so fine.
