Nightingale

To dance content with you in my arms tonight

dreaming together against each other

so it is that we wake to smile

if only, if only we knew

a close heart takes time

like the nightingale song so strong

we think only in moments

it does have us

a promise, so sure

spoken of impulse

therein lays the heart abandoned

with childish desires misunderstood

a wind comes free

and in it you would

you lead me to be
such is it to see

Another Night Alone

an innocence to your kiss
unlike that evening
you spoke so freely
something you couldn't say
until now

alone without color we see
inside when we hear
tears take us home
care comes to us
holding on

in your eyes I've never been
here you are in my arms
lost in parts of each other
some of another day
it is time

we dream so carefully free
our hearts patient
to wake so cautiously
here so close inside
we are taken
