Life's Night Mystery

by elvenfire   Sep 23, 2006


Luminary to the night that gave me sight in the dark. I've been taught that people that like to do things unseen usually like the cloak of night. And its really true if you plan on vicious like behavior then its best to hide that from you keeping you in the dark. I've learned my lessons, had my classroom sessions, to find this sadly true.

The first time I had my heart broken, I went for a long walk in the dark, it wasn't raining that night except the ache that drove the tears, that night I had no fears what another person in the dark could do, they couldn't hurt me more than I already was.

There have been so times , I wanted to see you, when I was so blind. Perhaps you heard me say, it doesn't matter anyway and you believe in me, that I said what I meant. Everything I said you listened and kept me true to my word. My voice was heard, but like the wind I changed and you gently reminded me who I am. You with the night vision the one that made friends long ago with the dark..

Night games are different here too. They usually meant that in the end I was going to feel
blue, but not with you. I hate games grown up people play, things untrue they say. These they play night or day. But the games we played,
the night time rhymes and times we shared, the souls bared, not ever meant to hurt each other.

The hurt wasn't there in the night, that part was missing, my soul
was safe from life's harms, in your virtual arms.
After awhile I'm not scared of your games, your different sides your different names. We didn't have a face we had a much more special place, in the heart in the dark, under the loving view of the man on the moon.

Now the time is ending here in this wondrous outer space,
and I still haven't a clue about you the one that people near you see. But thats ok, you've always been with me in my heart. You who revealed the night sky to my eye and took the fear from my heart of this wonderful time in the 24 hour span of time. Filled with beautiful rhyme.

And sometimes so random and fun you took my breath way,
I loved the games we play.

Is it true what love can do to you? Does perfect love throw all fear outside, make you not need to hide anymore? I believe now I believe thats true, literal and you. This started off as a thanks for a gift and that is true, but jokes on me, the real gift was you.

The place I can to be, the the person I came to see. Was you.
Wasn't it? Isn't that the reason I was really sent? The one I was meant to cheer, and be cheered by, the time has so flown by. And I am no longer blinded by the light, the night stars in the sky, saw me cry and comforted me like only the kindred spirit can pry the ache away.

Thanks for letting me be weak and thank you for thinking me strong.
I am not wrong. I was sent to "see" you. And I do.
