Strong and tall with...

The wind whispers a song so exuberantly beautiful
As the moon and stars waltz within an ebony sky...

Words hover on trembling lips
While the heart yearns for a love...

Night cascades over the horizon,
Elegantly reclaiming its throne...

As I'm embraced by the loving tears of weeping...

Her eyes house the souls
Of those she has contained...

Irrefutable passion sweetens forbidden lips,
Ones I crave to feel dancing along my skin...
