Before the day turned into night You I saw, what an awesome sight! A smile of eve, of love and light, A lovesome theme, my dream did write. Up high blazed pink arc of the sky, A spark of joy in purple dye, A gleeful vibe of sun’s goodbye, When love in your eyes moon did vie. You my love, are a dream come true, For life with you, is life I woo; On cusp of night, where stars lure you, To clues of love, the sunset drew. Pray I now, you will steer my way, Before this night turns into day.
