When the night finally falls,
Rising blackness comes around,
Birds return to their nests,
And thoughts of you haunt me.
Then your loveliness bestows
Hue to my fast-ascending life,
That I often discover myself
Softly whispering your name.
Your affection seems to possess
My soul, the whole of my being,
As I trace your innate beauty
On the shifting sand of memory.
And when I lay myself
Into a tranquil slumber,
My thoughts of you sink
Keener within my depths.
I try to trail your tracks,
As deep sleep swallows me,
In my dreams I see you,
Waving and smiling at me.
I am thinking of you so much,
To capture your elusive heart,
Am I having a clouded fantasy,
Without root and of brittle life?
