Kiss me and I swear I'll smile-
If you talk more I will stay awhile-
A midnight's reverie brings to me
The specter of you.

Curling in the softness of my covers,
Our imagination creates two lovers.
The perfumed scent of my pillow hovers,
As shadow alters the temporary hue,

Of astral light beaming through my window.
Our natural intensity did foreshadow,
The moment we will reach a pure human glow.
On what conditions... I do not know

Time slips through twenty fingers.
In the light of day this feeling lingers.
