Evening Melody

Wake me up when the sun sets,

The night is ours.

Dancing moons and laughing stars 

Are our friends

and the owls sing the songs

of our youth,

The bitter melancholy of past 

transgressions

And the sweet melody of the 

present warmth.

Fill me with life and suck it dry

With your quiet trance

Only for the wind to yawn

And grin like we first did.

The night sways our bodies 

As we fill our hearts with all we can handle,

The Dew point of our affection,

The climax in the moonlight,

The breath of the breeze.

Tell me now more than ever

That the moon will stay lit

When the birds begin to chirp

And the clouds gather 

For a space in our minds

All too full of each other.
