sleeping along the midnight moon |

ÒGo to sleep little oneÓ He whispered in her ear They sat between the moon and the cabin Her ring was adjacent to his palm With her bangs Flattering the wind They could lose only their hearts For their souls were sold to The fate of the fire It was stronger than her leather strapped jacket For I walked too far not to see this They were the fields of the west Where the souls of the highway Could see their eyes meet Their hands once reasons of the past Now became presents to one another She was losing herself under his chin Losing the smell of her perfume To the shallow night I think her hands might be his forever I think her light skin Might seem to cave his thoughts Might begin to understand his reasoning For why they sat amongst the towns bright lights She might begin to see his eyes Could fill her soul Like a white stallion horse Galloping as the wind set north She might begin to sleep again Forget her thoughts As the days become nights Her feet could tangle with his again They could fall under the heart Of their Sangria wine Sip by sip Until her hands clasped with his Until the shadow of the moon Bounced off their necks With their lips locking between the midnight star. |
