Only Moonlight Poem by Kevin East

From when you first said hello.
To when you stopped your sighing.
Love letters written in snow
Melt, when someone's lying.

I reach for your hand in the night.
Still burning, your eyes of fire.
Your spectre dances on starlight.
To exquisite moonlight choir.

Suddenly, with coldest sword
My heart you do pierce.
Ringing like a harpsichord.
In beauty's face so fierce.
Is the smell
Of sweet flowers.
A death knell
Only hours
Away.

Resounding in some lonely bay.
Sailing sorrow
To where I lie.
Only moolnlight will know
That How I cry.
