Just tonight.

Tonight

I feel

I touch

I moan

I crave

I cry

I gasp

Eyes shut tight.

Dreams

Sleep won't come

Blessed at the feet

of the Nocturnal God.

There he comes

there he goes.

I grab at all corners

Tearing me out

I longed for more

For crying out loud.

Such a fool

I was

to have played this game

A virgin to love-makers

A mare with no mane.

Past the river of lost souls

I walked

Look up!

I see a blue moon

Look down!

My own reflection.

In my dreams

I was not alone.
