Black night
shrouds my sight,
stills to silence
my failing breath.
Do you recall how,
by fierce day consumed,
passion's eye conveyed
love's light
deep into our beating hearts?
Glance up!
Oh, stretch back your neck,
raise
your sleepy eyes
and see how the tree,
thrusting to sky
dark branches, dons
the starry cloak
of night.
