Song of the Late Night Sorrow Contest
Come fluttering words, come drifting words to me . . .
Open my eyes to what I can’t see,
Their on the floor I found what was missing,
As I recall all the nights we spent kissing,
You ran out so fast and did not give me a chance,
I told you my heart and you just gave me a glance,
Now on the ground I spot are new fate,
A ring filled with pearls, I must be too late,
I just needed a moment to truly explain,
Instead you ran quickly into the pouring rain,
You spoke with passion, hunger and thirst,
I felt as though my heart would suddenly burst,
But then you enquired about me being your bride,
It caught me off guard like the evening tide,
Marriage is sacred to me my dear,
I cannot just say yes and have you disappear,
I know you are leaving early tomorrow,
And now I taste tears filled with such sorrow,
But I would have waited here for you,
For there is no one else I would want to pursue,
The nights hold our love like a candle with its fire,
Your touch is so precious my ultimate desire,
Please come back to me and make this right,
I will wait for you on this disastrous night,
Even the stars scream out my plea,
Floating through space and eternity,
I meant no such harm by the words I spoke,
They echo in mind as I simply choke,
Oh dreadful darkness have mercy on me,
Bring back the one who makes me happy,
I am left paralyzed in the silence of this night,
With just a symbol of our love to fill my hearts appetite,
If morning comes and you’re not back,
Nothing will fill this internal lack,
So I scream out to the crescent moon,
While Praying that you will come back here soon.
