On nights like tonight,
so warm... so humid... so dark...
when the wind is so still
that I can hear the wings of fireflies fluttering outside,
images of what was stir deep within my heart
and there is nothing I can do
to avoid thinking of you...
Memories come rushing in
and the essence of the past invades every part of me
All of a sudden, the thoughts in my mind are all there is
and it is then that I miss the most
your touch... your scent... your lips
I close my eyes and inhale deep
for the sultry smell of the sea to remind me that its all a dream
that you are not here,
that I am alone,
on a night like tonight
so warm, so humid, so dark.
