goodnight..

i cannot be

with you tonight

as in the past, when

the moon bore witness

to a pallid sky

turned bright by the song

we told

to play, as our souls danced

in melodies whispered

by a gentle night

breeze, choosing to stay

with us

i cannot see

your half slumbered dreams

as the sun rises

tomorrow

send you chills of the dawn's

last giggles

that laid you to sleep

in bliss

of knowing we had

us, to stay

but i shall not be far

i choose to fly your sky

tonight

and scatter dews

on a lush forest

that will embrace your soul

tomorrow

as you walk the path

towards a promise

we made

not so long ago

rest now

with the unfailing warmth

of faith, that days were not wasted

that nights were not spent

on wanton frills

before the next twilight

you shall find

me, and that promise

held gently

by cloud we have named

ours
