FOR YOUR EYES ONLY
Under the stars, in the moonlight
I dreamt of you last night.

That gentle cascading hair...
I could do nothing but stare:
It brushed my face,
and went through my fingers.

In the depth of my heart
that fragrance still lingers
Your eyes had something wild,
something serene;
there was divine light in them -
unknown and unseen.
I wanted to drown
into your mysterious eyes.
I wanted to know
who plucked them from open skies.

I realized,
that your eyes are not from this earth.
All the stars of the firmanent
cannot match their worth.
You walked away like the goddess -
which you are.
My dreams faded;
the moments that were felt were sour
The rest of the night

I chanted your name.
Knowing it cannot match your beauty,
the moon hid behind the clouds in shame.
