Midnight Lady.

When there re no more stars
in the gazing skies,
when the moon hides
behind the balding hill,
the light in your eyes 
shall find a way to my heart.

When the shadows creep in 
and solitude occupies,
when the evening wind pales
beneath the mountain`s feet,
your careless whisper
shall find me in the dark and keep  me from the cold
till i find strenght inside.

When there re no more candles in the hall way,
when there` re no more windows
to crawl behind ,
when there `s nothing left to do;

the memory of your kisses
shall be my fire
and the one desire,

to take me to the distant shore
where love is the power,
and night time...the hour.

Sweet and explicitly believable, I love this poem, the odor of the words make me believe I am there

This is beautiful and very poetic, but in the first line and a couple other times, you put "re" when I think you meant "be", that takes away from the poem. You do have good imagery and flow to your poem, good work, Judy Riley
