Mystery and Love
He’s drawn to her;
he knows there’s something strange about her.
She’s the mistress of the night,
and something about the night heightens her essence.
She whispers to the moon,
summoning the elements into her day.
Why is he captivated by this mysterious lady?
Seeing how the mystery weaves the night into day,
why is he pulled into this enigma?
Despite knowing she sometimes sojourns across a turbulent sea,
love takes you to uncertain places,
blinding you to the uncanny tendrils of reality.
She pours her love to him like the warmth of the summer sun,
her voice soothing his tumultuous nerves.
She has found a way to his heart,
but will her love stay with him forever?
Won’t she eventually be swallowed by her darkness?
She seeks redemption
while keeping the glow of her love.
His mother warned him that mystery doesn’t
intertwine with endless love.
She said that an enigma will eventually cast
its shadow over the light of love.
His mother cautioned that a seething conundrum
will soon be shrouded by its complexities.
They decide to part ways,
but they still burn for each other;
their hearts continue to beat for one another.
He sees her in the meadow of his mind,
and she sees him in the mirror of hers.
