A Cold Love

You are an invisible light

Unerring in your wisdom, your radiance

Only to be unveil at night

Where you shall find me waiting

Dancing beneath you, I shiver and glow

An apology for the long absence

Shared by the secret only we know

And a story I hardly remember

I lose sight of you often

Cloudy vision and a muddied mind

But with each glimpse I soften,

Arising with new passion

The artificial glow of passing cars

Distracts from your beauty

Strangers gaze upon satellites and stars

But I shall never neglect you

A beckoning draws me close

I pull away from the ordinary

Heedless to the sharp rocks I expose

We are soon to be united

Rushing faster towards still splendor

I swirl restlessly, arms open to you:

My lonely and forgotten defender

I too protect our endless love

Hidden from the heat of high noon,

We immerse in each other

As I am the ocean, you are the moon

Silver and dark against the twilight
