Poetry

Momentous Night

Sky is bright and gay
Night is bejeweled with enchanting stars

Moon and its beauty crafted trenches
Chirping crickets are pleasing to the ears
Creating a loquacious night.

As we stare in the vastness
Memories reflected into our senses
Awaken our souls till it cannot breath
Longing for your love in the wreath
That brings us to eternity.

It was a momentous night

When I first gazed upon your eyes

Terrified by what I would see

Slowly drowning in a perpetual river of

broken hearts and lost souls.

You are like a thief in the night

You take my heart to paradise

You rob me of my anguish and

Drown me with your affection

Till the last breath of my soul.
