Nacht

Drawn to the Night

Nacht

 

           The gothic flame burns inside

           Something we can’t escape

                                   though we tried

           and so we met in the forest black

           wandering together trying

                                   trying to find our way back

           Grimm Brothers and fairy tales

           dance under the pale moonlight

           and words fail

           The darkness we fight

           In dreams together we walk

           but in light we do not talk

           of this nacht we share

           someday though    we might dare
