CRADLED IN THE ARMS OF THE NIGHT



A lonesome, starry night'

Captures a love through the ages

A day turning into nighttime

A book with both the pages

Midnight and the moon

Making not a sound

A pure and simple bond

A single star appears 

On twilights horizon, blessing

The darkness and the light

The moon so poignant

A drifting melancholy deep

To hush us softly into sleep

Silver twinkling, countless 

In the eye of the sky

Sad melodies born from so high

The air heavy, breathes out a sigh

Cradled in the arms of nights lullaby

A single tear falls, from eyes of a yawn

Eye close to open to a new and tender dawn!
