Did you know that we're expected to behave as a functioning adult
for the rest of our lives?
Seems a bit excessive.
I don't know.
One day,
maybe two tops,
but the rest of our lives?
I don't know.
An ape of their fate, moonlight sway,
Where shadows waltz and dreams delay.
The stars lean close, a coy ballet,
And whisper secrets to the night.
The breeze is humming, soft and low,
It carries tunes we used to know.
Oh,
velvet moonlight,
hold me tight,
Your glow turns darkness into light.
A dance,
a glance,
a fleeting flight,
Forever lost in velvet night.
The city sighs in muted tones,
Each cobblestone,
a tale of bones.
The lamplight flickers,
fades,
then moans,
A fleeting spark,
a lover's plea.
And though the hours start to blur,
I hear your voice.
I'm sure,
I'm sure, Velvet moon, you've seen it all.
The rise of love, the bitter fall,
Yet here you linger, soft and frail.
A witness to our tender call.
