Remember the Fairy

When the moon is full and the night is young And the smell of honeysuckle lingers As you wander down every star strewn path You will long for the warmth of my fingers As you meet the dawn and you hear the song Of nature that’s greeting the day You will want to feel my warmth like the sun And you will whisper my name when you pray As the day waxes on, you are undone And you need to lay your head on my chest The tears will gather then threaten to fall For you’ll regret that you lay love to rest As the sun goes down in glorious array Of the same colors and hues of my soul You will feel the urge to hold me once more And for your brokenness to be made whole As you toss and turn on your lonely bed And you wish for the release of sweet dreams You see me hover just out of your reach Your desire to possess hopeless seems When I was yours my heart lived to delight Like a fairy, I was ever on hand But you tired of me, left fairyland These fairy sprinkles don’t seen quite as grand And so when you feel an enchanted breeze Embued with desire caress your face Or when tenderness washes over you Your fairy calls to you her love to trace She’ll dance through each moment, sing in your dream You will regret that you threw her aside The torment she’ll put you through will be sweet You WILL remember me, your fairy bride.
