    when the night casts a shadow on the mood of every lover
    and all seek shelter in the arms of one another
    the lone souls walk the grounds in hunger so deep
    that the angels may only watch from afar
    as the youngest take that blinding leap

    when the storm rages on above the restful few
    and the lustful advance on pleasures justly due
    one heart emerges from a dreamy sleep
    so sweet that demons must back down against
    a purity of love that burns so deep

    as the moon drags its weariness across the jeweled sky
    and lovers close their knowing eyes in light of one such lie
    the inevitable truth untouched will seep
    into the veins of each unquiet soul
    such love be revealed so all must weep

    Really loved this one. Wanted to reread with a clearer head before I posted though. I think that middle stanza caught me up the most. Thanks hun.
