on a night like this

on a night like this

where moonlight beams;

the dark knight in his glory

casts a shadow over me.

trees whisper in the wind

words of restlessness,

wearing souls thin.

on a night like this

in the summer heat;

our gazes meet

intertwine in space

lock in embrace.

my sweet prince

you know it's you.

but i shall never say

least it devalues

thus like spoken words do.

on a night like this

goodnite never ends

and parting hearts grieve.

such a night like this

fragile as can be.

the majesty of the night

swallows me up

and dwells in the abyss

of my beating heart.
