Thoughts of You

They come late at night
When sleep finds not its way to my eyes
When I can't reach out to your heart
When I can't hear your side of the story

At such time, the sky, with stars, is all bright
Beautiful it is, yet, in spite of such, my heart cries
I never wanted us to keep apart
I never expected us, to be, for yesterday, so sorry

These thoughts, they do come at such a time
I then remember of how I used to rejoice being in your arms
Enjoying your torrid, loving charms
Forgetting even that the whole world does be

With glee, I did surrender to you, shouting out your name
For more, for more of all that you can give
For more of this hunger that for me, you do harbor
For more of this flame that I do see in your eyes, when you look at me

I then also remember of how life was by your side, a real solace
How I used to spend my time, choosing for your pleasure, my attire
How days and nights spent together felt like an eternal dance
Oh it is at those times, that I do let my tears flow

For in spite of our passion, I did choose to let go of your side
Maybe the culprit was none other than my pride
Capricious, a submissive one I could never be
All because you did abuse of my fragility

Late at night, thoughts of you, do keep me wide awake
My heart and soul do cry, for old time's sake
I do then wonder about the future
Shall you forgive me for this misbehavior?  

Someday, I shall be with you again
Such was promised to me, once, when my soul cried
Oh yes, for such, I do have faith so bold and so strong
Yes, as while being in love, one can never, ever be wrong!
