Dusk

One more night my love

My universe will be ended

My time in your arms will be over

Never again to sleep tranquil in my twillight embrace

Never again to touch those gentle lips with my own

Never again to hear the music that is your laughter

Or to see the brilliant light that is your smile

Never again to feel your tantalizing breath upon my cheek

Never again to love you with my body, heart and soul

Never again to dream of you in the dawn

Or smile at your approach in the stars

I long for one more night

To give you the innermost part of me

And feel the depths of your passion and love.
