Another Long Night

Landscape slimming
Moonlight dimming
Her eyes lose their luster
Her mind-the dream caster

Involuntary decision
Frequent submission
Somnial worlds come
Her soul is undone

Psyche unraveled
Pathways travelled
She rekindles memoirs
that were lost in life's hours

Helpless feelings
Wicked dealings
Her soul seeks escape
from its violent rape

Carefree frolics
Endless picnics
Time seems to stand still
while desires are fulfilled

Dreaming continually
Waking eventually
She sits fully content
Another long night well spent
