The Company of Night
Nocturnal beauty flying through the night
Indigo Gypsy hiding from the light.
Close your eyes, make a wish
and send it up in a cloud.
Lost you are, but soon to be found.
The stars can't be reached,
but they are listening.
Tell them how you feel.
"I don't want to glow
I want to get darker.
Let the inside consume the out.
Fade to black like a dying ember
up like smoke, light as a feather.
I searched all day for the night."
And the fire sent love letters to the stars.
Transparent swirls of empty promises.
Words never fade scars.
She sits alone by a fire in the woods
her jacket is stolen, but intentions good.
Indigo Gypsy, tell me.
I am here.
"I don't want to glow
I want to get darker.
Let the inside consume the out.
Fade to black like a dying ember
up like smoke, light as a feather.
I won't live through the light."
Oh, darling
you are not ruined.
I know the world seems quiet,
but it's just soft-spoken.
You are not the first to cry tonight.
Indigo Gypsy, tell me.
I am here.
