An Evening of Bliss
An evening of bliss, oh how I adore,
Where the heartbeat of longing forever soars.
For you, I lay a velvet night’s embrace,
And the waterfall of stars cascades with grace.
My heart unveils the depths of my love,
Knocking on sorrow’s door, mindful of the rough.
Yet my tongue falters, unable to express,
As if all words have dwindled, I confess.
Oh, the smile of hopes, when it draws near,
Won’t you approach me, my dear, without fear?
For the radiant moon of beautiful dreams,
Shall remain aglow, forever it gleams.
