This night of silence with its moonglow
offers me a long-sought resolution towards serenity
allowing my thoughts to wander into my past
with a "visualization" to another time
filled with beautiful faces that will never age
drifting "whimsy" memories
When life was love and love was lived
like a devotional "dream"
to be captured and injected with fragrant flowers
In a world filled with colorful "imagination"
and engaged "reverie"
I lift my eyes to the night sky
holding each bittersweet recollection
When I shared my heart
Remembering each face caressed
that hangs suspended in my mind, resting
like a "hallucination" of motionless yesteryears
When my heart dripped sobs from tender desires
And life was never thought of
Rather lived and experienced, drenched by passing lovers
trapped in emotional landslides of tortured expectations
Leaving too many eyes, I looked into
becoming shadows of stolen, sad years
that weigh heavily in this night of silence
where I'll ask my heart for forgiveness
