On Nights Like These

I fly into the silver gray skies searching for you.
Summoned by the dreams of nymphs and satyrs
the moon shimmers and smiles in veiled silence.
A blue bird on a distant shore sings of longing
only fools know what it is like to truly desire.

A long journey through the guarded dreams
self-denial .. self-annihilation.. now truth dawns
upon the heart with love and immense beauty
and I find you nestled between the pages of every story
smiling and patiently waiting for me to discover you.
