And The Moon Melted

And The Moon Melted


The moon rose high up in the sky
Without a single sound
The wind like silk, embraced our shadows
Lying on the ground.

Your lips, wine stained, delicious 
Devoured mine hungrily
And your dark eyes of paradise
Made my eyes, Eden see.

The soft waves, ebbing slowly
As the sea it's symphony, played
A dark background with silver gleaming
While my heart at your feet, laid.

Your questioning eyes, my questioning sighs
Asked questions without words
And our hearts in answer, in rhythm shouted
What only two hearts had heard.

Your hand upon my chin, to raise
My face up to your glance
You kissed me softly like a whisper
And our feet began to dance.

For music then sprang from everything
With no musician hidden there
And the night clouds parted, silently fleeing 
To reveal the bright moon there.

The love that shone as night moved on
All of our sadness, shattered
And we forgot our pasts and forgot our pain
Knowing now was all that mattered.

And the moon, knowing much about love herself, smiled 
As you melted yourself into me
And the moon, who loved those dark silvery waters  
Melted herself into the sea.

Are You Afraid?

The Last Butterfly

by

Wodkah

Are You Afraid?

Are you afraid? she asked of me

But I answered not her query

For I was much, so much afraid

But thrilled and much and very.

So long I'd waited for her call

So long I'd dreamed of this

Waiting for her promises

Waiting for her kiss.

And dreamless nights had turned me back

When no dream could be found

And I had wandered far and long

On wearied feet and ground.

Waiting on her special isle

Beyond the field of flowers

I sought her every tear-stained night

And waited many hours.

Until my heart had given up

And I turned myself away

To leave that place, with saddened face

And then I heard her say.........

My love, where goeth thou this night?

Why hast thou lost thy dream?

I've watched thee, lo, these many moons

Hidden by the stream.

I made a path of roses

I sang a lover's song

I lit for you a shining light

I waited all night long.

But you looked in all the wrong places

You heard not my sweetened tune

Your tears put out the candle's glow

And your darkness hid the moon.

Come here, beloved, come to me

Rest your weary head

I'll tell you tales to make you well

Of living things and dead.

See how my dark eyes shine for you?

See how my sweet lips smile?

I am a mystery, this is true

But in me, you'll find no guile.

I feel your heart like a thousand drums

Press against my own

I feel your blood rush through that heart

Like it's racing to get home.

Shh!!! Don't speak, don't say a thing!

There's time enough for words

I only want this sweet communion

That our two hearts have heard.

I know you've searched a long long time

And I have evaded you

But I had to prove unto myself

That you, my love, were true.

I'm not like other maidens

Who tease and employ tears

For if you make me weep, my love

I simply disappear.

And all you'll see is a fading glimpse

Or a shadow of my smile

You may hear a snippet of my song

And in dreams, hold me a while.

But not for long and not always

Will your eyes behold my face

For the shadows will take me if I cry

To a dark and dream-less place.

Until my heart is healed and whole

And my soul is once more well

For up till now, no man has learned

To break this cursed spell.

Are you the One, my best beloved?

The man to set me free?

For if you're not, turn now and run

And let this maiden be.

For if you're not, turn now and run
And let this maiden be............
