Nocturnal

Tonight I pray that sleep will open it's deep and silent hall the sky is on the ground as if a mirror... Night is always the sea of ancient dreams I crave your dark body is soon next to mine I'm a shipwreck of the forgotten... You are my dark angel coming to me from heaven on the invisible ladder from the infinite sea that mirrors the sky... You speak to me a song yielding your lips and thighs to offer your tongue of fire to bring to me your mystery of flesh, blood and desire... Tonight I cannot sleep I am a prisoner in my own bed I yearn for the sweat that dampens our thighs... Outside my foggy window a lone star emerges trembling and awake such a shy apparition light from centuries ago... Maybe tomorrow night not this cruel long night yellow with fire all night I will be content next to your warm body...
