Rendezvous Tonight

 You and I often meet 

Where the night meets the morning, 

You enlighten my darkness 

With your ray of hope; 

And I wake from my slumber 

Of unawareness.

Your consciousness plays in my subconscious, 

I hold on to you 

Like the wind tries to hold on 

To sand in the desert in vain.

I feel you near me 

Till the nights disappear into mornings; 

And you slip away slowly, 

Like the stars fading into blue.

I wake up with 

A feeling of emptiness in my heart 

And longing in my soul, 

Until I see you again in my dreams 

When the darkness engulfs. 

And silence reigns in the heart.
