Edinburgh At Night

Tonight I walked across the abandoned silent city. A fading moon was pushing fast moving clouds over dark roofs, over Edinburgh Castle, the dark castle, with gleaming eyes to penetrate the shadows. I hear myself walking, echoes from silent walls and cobbled pavement. But you were with me in my thoughts, a graceful light and entering the darkness. I saw your smile through hidden moonlight. The clouds gave me your kisses. Tonight you were so close and I felt not alone.
