I saw you tonight
slowly slipping into the dark
sliding beyond my sight
hiding behind what I could not see
I saw you tonight
peeking at me from afar
silver light
hard to see when I first looked for you
High above the lights of the city
Through rain covered windows
What will be as you are revealed?
Stars are dimmed by your light
the grass is filled with diamonds
and the sun bows before you.
I saw you tonight peeking at me
Sliver light filling my garden
laying your purple traps
Leaving your chocolate for me
to taste
I saw you tonight waiting
in the bamboo
and roses…
making shadows to tease me.
You slip so easily behind
the wispy clouds
throwing your light
leaving me yearning
How easily you are
amused upon my pillow
and playing across the windows
setting my room aglow with
secrets.
I saw you peeking at me
