Reverie in nocturnal fashion
Unable to conceal my passion
Your face intensified by night
Your beauty magnified ten times…
This something seems so right
As you draw near
We embrace, hold hands and kiss
This moment of ephemeral bliss
But in our instant of fleeting power
The impending dawn grows ever louder
Before too long
You are gone,
The moon and stars above you.
I convince myself it wasn’t wrong—
I never get to say
I LOVE YOU
