~of Midnight's Blue~ Poem by Sinnaminsun Sinnaminsun

Take away all light
turning day to night,
Shadows throw black back
as day slowly retracts,
Held within this dark
a soul sustains a spark,
Alighting deep within
a flame is free again.

Your eyes look unto me,
you gaze but do you see
Vivid in your view,
burning flame of midnight blue.
Gather stars around,
casting up and shining down
Your eyes look back to see,
You assume, but night's not me.

When dawn appears you'll know,
the flame's too faint to show
When night-winds turn your tide,
burns the flame fueled by moonlight
A love of midnight blue,
glows the flame I burn for you.
