Gentle Night

A Love Poem

A look in your eyes transcends all

As though it were a glimpse into higher spheres

Peering into that deep space

As the glittering beauty shines

Amid the black blanket

A ripple and gust of color show

As your heart beats in perfect rhythm

Like clockwork the image of your beauty

Falls into hypnotic view

My yearning reaches out to you

Like the boarding of a long train

Set out on one eternal round

Bound for further levels of brilliance

As my gaze ever ventures further

Resonate in this gaze is the product of divinity

Angelic personage before me

Justified desire for a bond, an embrace,

A journey taken on for the thrill of the mountain's peak

The conquering hike to ecstasy

Harmonized in the balance of forces,

Love extending out far from home

To reach what is not yet seen but already known

Warm hands found in the quiet ebony of night

Shelter from the raging storm

Antidote to the paralyzing despair

The reason to look and to love at all.
