lyrics

WEDDING NOCTURNE

Once more, for the blue moon, Dearest -

Timeless smile
Reflecting moon’s reflection

Calm, beach-ridden, sand-caked
Children of night

Cool eyes spark
With every curtain peek –
Majestic burglaries from the infinite, unthinkable.

Thieves, we hide underneath sweet cold stars –
Right: as salmon in the sweet chilled stream.

Moonlit, she was: as mystery is;
Lips moist with refrigerated sun,
We share stolen sweets.
