A Gentle Cradle of the Night

Silver twists from the moon,

And drapes the night in its silken folds,

He knows she'll be coming home soon,

And standing in the snow, a promise he holds.

She glides down to the forest floor,

Radiates a warmth that seeps into his heart,

He'd promised they'd stay together for evermore,

United for eternity and never to part.

Their promise unravels as they sway in the night,

He reads her eyes and they hold a tale,

A tale of sorrows and love and delight,

And they dance in the snow as his feet leave a trail.

In small glowing steps she walks upon the air,

She giggles and smiles as he drinks it all in,

Her presence, her light, a sight so rare,

Her fingers skim over his and he thinks what could've been.

If he had held their promise carefully in his hands,

If he hadn't let her go into the dark and the deep,

If he had somehow evaded fate's cruel strands,

Then he wouldn't have been left all alone to weep.

So just like each night, she slips out of his grasp,

Leaving the snow as dead as before,

A tear falls down and rips out a gasp,

Regret eats him up and he shivers to the core.
