| "One
Of Those Nights"
It
was one of those nights again...
coming
home tired from a days work,
entering
my room
with
a sullen and gloomy beat
I made
myself a cup of coffee
to
ease the pain of hunger
and
warm my body in this cold
and
rainy September night.
And
stood by the window and
just
stare at the empty streets below.
Sad
and soft music played in my stereo,
hauntingly
sweet and painfully nostalgic,
taking
me again to a place, far away…
I
closed my eyes and started swaying by.
Savoring
every notes of the songs,
Reverberating
throughout the room,
And
stayed entranced for awhile…
Soothing
night breeze
Graced
her fingers ‘round my face.
Moonlight,
pale and silvery
Illumined
my evening
Of
quiet thoughts and solitude
Adding
melancholy
to
a sojourn down beaten path
of
good old memories.
I
took a lungful of air
And
breathe a sigh,
"It
was one of those nights again…"
Then
I saw you.
In
soft white flowing satin gown,
Right
across from where I am.
A
smile streak past my face,
And
for a moment I stood there,
Just
gazing at you… Lovely and Fair,
Then
I made it across to where you are
But
you stood unmoved, just waiting…
You
looked me straight in the eye.
And
I thought I’d never saw a pair of star
Looking
down at me so close, so near
I
can almost touch its brightness.
Will
you dance with me?
Will
you dance with me?
I
whispered softly
And
you just motioned towards me,
wrapped
your hands around my neck
And
laid your head upon my chest…
Your
body so warm and so soft,
So
close to mine.
And
we started dancing
Like
we never danced before.
Slow
and tender, graceful and sweet
And
time just stood still,
as
we finally kissed… full of passion
It
was one of those nights again
Where
I’m missing you so much
And
played out this scene on and on
Pretending
you were there, waiting
But
only in my mind…
Ah,
one of those nights again... |
