Nightsongs

Excitement echoes into the night,
like banshees we call to the heavens.

With those you love,
clear nights are the best.
The clouds will be jealous tonight.

Specks of bright,
scattered across our darkness.

Tonight, pick just one.
One is more than enough.
Then you can let go,
and fly.

Stumbling down,
spurts of laughter pierce the silence,
over the mock questioning you give us.

Dizzying heights
Emotions so tight, so true.
If only for an instant,
I know you're spinning too.

Racing across the expanse,
cold dew from the grass burns my soles.
I could do this forever,
until I find you.
We are one of a kind.
