The darkness has surrounded me.
The mystery that night brings has left me vulnerable.
I never know what to expect.
What if he shows up again in my dreams?
I close my eyes and I see him there in front of me.
I want to make the first move.
I reach out to touch him, but he disappears.
I turn around, and he?s standing there with his arms open.
I have no choice but to go right into them.
Our embrace is warm; I feel I couldn?t get any closer to him if I tried.
We gaze into each other?s eyes.
His ask a wordless question, mine answer back with the answer he?s hoping for.
Soon we are engaged in a kiss that will give way to the passion of the passing night.
When night has ended and he has left me, I feel no regrets, because I know that when the day succumbs to the night, he will be back again.
And two creatures of the night will be joined in the darkness.
