Night Beauty Series

Night Beauty

A woman in flowing robes walks
Steadily through the rising mist
The Moon is full and lights her way
Her skin shimmering, star-kissed
She follows a path no-one else can see
There’s a map drawn upon her heart
She feels it leading her gently along
Its been guiding her from the start
Her gentle steps do not disturb
There is silence in the air
She feels a welling in her heart
As she seeks out the Ones so Fair
There is a radiance about her
A beauty thats rarely seen
As she glides through the glistening
Night as though lost inside a dream



Night Beauty part 2

Ahead she sees the lamplight
A beacon for travellers in the night
The Faerie realm lies before her
Ah! You’ve never seen such a sight

Magick shimmers in the air
The flowers are in bloom
Their fragrance wafts throughout
The night, an enchanting perfume

She steps before the Queen so Fair
Courtesy’s with perfect grace
The Fair Queen smiles lovingly
Upon the beautiful woman’s face

The clouds in the sky, do part a little
The Moon shines down from above
The Queen reaches out and embraces
The daughter she called Love.

The Inevitable

Clinging desperately to hope
To the joy that once filled my heart
Watching, in disbelief as we are
Increasingly torn apart

Aching to go back, to those
Awesome times we shared
Longing to stop the inevitable
Wondering, can this be repaired?

Loving you has changed me
In ways I’d never dreamed
Yet still there is so much
That simply cannot be redeemed

I wish that I could see you again
And be held in your embrace
I long to nuzzle into you
As you kiss my tear stained face

My heart, it just won’t let you go
And my soul cries the tears I hide
As every day we draw it out
Neither one of us willing to decide

Deception

Feed me your lies
They taste good on my tongue
Worm your way in
With the tales you’ve spun

Bind me in half-truths
Pull the wool over my eyes
Hide behind your mask
Your handsome disguise

You slink through the darkness
As you search for your prey
Oh why do I stand still,
When I should run away?

I see you now,
See who you really are
I curse myself,
For falling this far

Now faced with this choice
Of believing your lies,
Or of walking away
And severing all ties

My heart, it aches
My illusions I miss
Oh why did it all
Have to come to this?

The Light

In this deathly quiet dark

I seek out your shining light

In this silence of the tomb

The world is covered by night



I strain to hear your whispered pleas

As this darkness, it keeps us apart

Your light is now but a flickering flame

As I try to hold on to your heart



Fingertips graze as I search for you

This heavy darkness, our curse

It’s pulling us in different directions

But real love, it cannot disperse



And so I keep my eyes to your light

As I lean in and grasp your hand

And pulling you into the safety of me

This darkness, it tries to expand



But love it seems, is a funny thing

As you see, I wont let you go

And the light that’s in me pours out now

Into your heart, a never ending, healing flow...

Strands of Starlight

Strands of starlight
Fragile as gossamer threads
Gently woven in the midnight sky
Like flower garlands atop faeries heads
Pale silver moonlight
Shimmers on glassy black water
Sitting quietly near the waters edge
A young woman cradles her daughter
She closes her eyes and bathes in the light
Of her friend, her lover, her Mother
The silver flame, it fills her up
And for her there’ll never be any other
A cool breeze blows, it rustles her dress
The blossoms fragrance permeating the air
A sense of peace, a quiet calm
Theres nothing that can compare
The beauty of the nighttime sky
Has reawakened her soul
She kisses her child upon her cheek
As moonlight makes her whole
