One Perfect Night Poem by Danny Speicher

Tonight I saw your beautiful smile once more
Tonight I saw your eyes shining bright once again
Tonight I didn't have words to tell what' within
Tonight... I've never had a night like this before

It has been so long since I've felt so heartbroken
It has been longer yet since I've been so in love
And as I looked up at the cloudy skies above
I thought of all the things that were left unspoken

More than anything I dreamed of one perfect night
Where, together, we could sit, holding each other
On a bench or on a dock just one another
Watching the stars drift by in the dusky twilight

Oh, Lord, I pray for this night to come near and soon
My sweetheart and I, snuggling under the moon
