Stalking

I crept upon the moonlit night
To where my heart doth dwell
To spy amidst the candlelight
My one true love, my belle

A sultry vision, tempting eyes
Her pow’rs just never belay
She leaves me ever paralyzed
My love she keeps at bay

No wishing brings her to me
No praying makes her know
The feelings I want her to see
The love I wish to show

So, I will sneak again tonight
The shadows know my course
I’ll seek her out by candlelight
As love reveals its force

Pretty powerful force someone has over you, imagined or real. Amazing rhyme and flow. Love, Shar
