the stars fill the night moonlight dances amidst shadows we have retired to the backyard where fireflies dance our world has come to rest the day is fast closing somewhere palaces are in celebration people lost in banquets and dance sharing unending conversations searching for joy, a moment of laughter here we sit hand in hand lost in the silence of each other while fireflies chase their dreams i have but one the day's final kiss holding you until sleep takes me knowing the day's greatest joy awaits as dawn breaks across the horizon you will fold into me good morning my love hysteria as our lips meet somewhere they are cleaning the palace OKC 7/27
