Midnight Fever


At the soft darkness outside cast a simple glance
Just one look for your mood you enhance
Still awake and busy or more like starting
Because all day you walk around sleeping

But now in the depth of the night
Where almost every soul is tucked in, out of sight
Your music turns back up from its earlier silencing
Your mind now reels and is racing

Who says the night is dead?
Who prefers the bright morning instead?
Who fears its endless jaws?
Who takes apart its beauty and finds flaws?

They are at loss because they have not lived
They expect each aspect to give, give, give
They have yet to be awakened by their own drive
They have yet to catch midnight fever or catch alive

Moonlit Stroll

Evening has fallen
And we’re just talkin’
On our moonlit stroll
Our hearts on patrol

Stopping to stare above
Surrounded in our love
Watching the white silver moon
Wondering what is to come soon

We’re at a perfect place to start
But we have to part
We’re under the endless sky
But it’s time to say goodbye

Stars laughing and bright
Such a wondrous sight
Almost as lovely as her eyes
When she looks up at the skies

Night whispering and sweet
Such a calming treat
Almost as lovely as his smile
Making each day worth while

We’re at a perfect place to start
But we have to part
We’re under the endless sky
But it’s time to say goodbye

Walking this moonlit path
From decades of aftermath
But each second new and novel
She still seems just like a model

Walking this moonlit path
From decades of aftermath
But each second novel and new
He still wins my heart right on cue

We’re at a perfect place to start
But we really have to part
We’re under the endless sky
But now it’s time to say goodbye

We’re under the endless sky
But now it’s time to say goodbye
We’re under the endless sky
But now it’s time; it’s time to say goodbye

Open Blinds


Rush of light floods in

Through eyes shut sensed

Awaken by unrelenting brightness

Streaming steady, endlessly inward

Bathing the room in light

Unavoidable, inevitable


Escapes a moan of despair

Eyes forced to contradictions

No longer able to drift back to sleep

Yet wanting nothing more than escape

The blinding intensity of the rays

Outlining luminosity a ton


Uncovering the whites

Of the eyes, and the iris bright

Lifting the blanketing lids covering

The warmth of the darkness and night

During sleep, comfort stripped

Away from dreaming
