Who beckons me in the silence?
Is it the spirit of the night
which wants to show its might?
how it holds mankind in thrall
and sweeps its spell overall?
What do night noises say?
smothered sobs of daily dires?
groans that nightmares liberate
or the moans that replay sate?
What do lurking shadows say?
I try to read the patchy squares
are they made of light which falls?
should I block the fading light?
will that spread equalising dark?
what do the countless stars twinkle?
a ray of hope for my weary heart.
a message from you to me
'sleep my love' you say
'and dream of me'
i shall i shall
I listen to the silence of the night
and hear your heart beat to mine
let the silence shout our love
It is so pure so divine!
