Tomorrow

The blue curtain falls. Shut the pink sky.
The red hibiscus closes its eye.
Moonlight rest bright, 
blanket my snow.

All the days I’ve watched turn.
Every moment I have let go.
Time may be quick, but I have hastened my step.
Tomorrow I will be on the starting line.

So fall night,
cease tight.
Wrap your veil around my life,
Till the yellow dawn of a new day.
