In the Silent Night

In the silence of the night, When passion goes all alight, Whispering shadows tiptoe Through the greens of mistletoe To tell me of my past life. I’m held till dawn, in a strife. 7 syllables per lines, 42 syllables in all Rhyme scheme: aa bb cc Date:13/06/16 For Night Silence contest. 3rd prize, Glory

Thanks a lot for the constructive words. I'm overwhelmed it was appreciated. I wrote it as soon as i saw the contest (after a little deception on missing the "Fireworks for me" con.)
