My night vigil continues
As I watch the shadows lengthen
Into nothingness; new sounds
From the Nightmaster’s Jukebox
Filter in through the air
Calling for some ritual
Long forgotten by the Day
Guarded by the moth and owl
Keepers of the Secret Way
What wordless magic shimmers
Grey against this black backdrop?
Luring frail and wayward hearts
A net from Forbidden Desires woven
Deeper ecstasies; a new fantasy
The lonely sighs of a Broken Heart
The quiet gasp of laughter
Of the one in Love
Offerings at the Goddess’ sacrificial fire
The fumes from their Sabbath
Fashioned into a heady brew
Bottled Madness and liquid Sanity
Poison and antidote coupled
My night vigil continues
As I watch the stars come out
Pinpricks of Hope
In this vast night of Hate
Avenging angels bent
On a celestial mission for Love
The night rain falls
Stinging droplets upon my face
As I close my eyes
And walk into the pain
They mingle with the tears
Of a hundred hopeless nights
The piercing silence
Of a screaming heart
My fears ride the vast grey clouds
These gremlins from my private world
Children of the night; their feet
Pattering in an endless dance
Around the dying flames of Passion
The winds of Change rustle my hair
Whispering in my ears a message
From afar; speaking of hope and love
For this night will pass
And a new sun dawn;
The magic dissolving
To give way to the Light
The day hides its mysteries
In its enigmatic smile
In clouds across the horizon
My faith in the magic chords
Of the night vigil propels me
Forward, as with new wings spread
Face to face with Destiny
I soar into the future
Leaving the Night behind
