I feel night’s breath as she sighs to the trees,
hear the leaves slowly waltzing in dance,
the moon kissing stars with the softest of glow,
evening songbirds whisper their romance.
a moonbeam’s ballet softens the dark,
shadows scurry to play hide and seek,
their phantom forms fading in and away,
always there, but never complete.
I felt your breath as you sighed in the night,
saw your tears reflected by the moon,
the stars, like our romance, losing their glow,
evening songbirds cry farewell with their tune.
the shadows still play, you’ve joined them now,
you dance with the moonbeam’s goodbye,
I search in the darkness for a last glimpse of you,
see my tears, hear my lonely night sighs.
