Upon This Night

Come to me upon this night,
within a moment time has forgotten,
to alight my path upon a road
filled with the stillness of the
night's encroaching shadows,
a place which lays beyond
the gentle drumming of
a single heartbeat held secure,
a place where the twinkle of stars
dance in an endless shimmering cascade.

Come to me upon this night,
where there is nothing beyond
the sway of your heart and mine, intertwined.
Encircle me into your arms,
enrapture me in your embrace,
as you weave my very essence into your soul,
for there you are bound within mine,
and I am captivated,
thrown into a world which
lays just beyond the threshold,
of time's outstretching tendrils.

Come to me upon this night,
and bathe within the serene waters
of a single moment
born within my eyes,
even if only upon the
rising tides of a dream,
and lead me in a dance
of splendid enchantment
wrapped within your arms' tender embrace,
for here, in this place,
I belong to no other but you.
