Night's Neverland
In the stillness of night,
His voice whispers, calling
Through shadow and mist
Haunted face I see, falling
Through private dreams he walks;
Invoking sweet imaginations,
Unfurling night’s beauty
Giving me exquisite sensations
Softly, with passion
Hands caressing and exploring.
The words he sings to me
Send my mind soaring
He awakens hidden dreams,
Fulfils deep secret wishes,
Seeping beneath my skin
With each of his kisses
On paths paved in roses
Holding tight to my hand -
He leads me yet deeper
Into Night’s Neverland
Dancing beneath starlight,
Jasmine light on the breeze -
Fireflies dance above us,
Candlelight in the trees
His breath fills my body;
Soft caress so exquisite -
Taking more of me with him
At each night time visit
Kissing me deeply
As dawn tints the sky;
With the night hours over
I smile softly and sigh
In the morning I wake,
On my pillow red rose -
A note with his promise;
My desire for him grows
Standing in sunlight
Yet, chilled to the bone
Until darkness falls,
I am hollow, alone
