Summary: (2006 harry) are we ever too old to fall in love?




so you will be sleeping now
i biding my time until we wake together
forever is not long enough
i am not tough enough yet
so many words just fly out of the window
some like moths in the night
to the light
in flight to die
with the fear of being captured

the rapture in my dreams words cannot say
but then the light of day creeps stealthily in
sneaking shrewdly through the curtains
the uncertainties cast me to the ground
you have found me now
sounds haunt me now
laughter taunting at my side
nothing left to hide now

bright expectations, flirtations, emotions

afraid now, the moth hovers closer to the light
knowing in its heart, the start of a brand new day
but this is our first day
wake up now
