Insane games cease,
Finally after hell is gone.
Away with the dying sun
At dusk.

Darkness brings peace,
And wraps the world
In harmony,
As lovers reach for eternity.

Deep kisses steal love,
From the hesitant of hearts.
In the spotlight of a full moon,
With an audience of stars.

Still and quiet.
Only the gentle rain whisping,
The pain of day
Away into the night.
