Not living for today yet dreading the
break of dawn, my life is spent in the
cool clear carress of the night. Stars above
and dewy grass below our bare feet. Throw
caution to the wind and leave your fears
at the door. Tonight is reserved for a
love that is as young and carefree as we
once were. Let go of the bonds of the
day, give in to a love that your captors
could never dream to comprehend, a love
free of rules and those who would forbid
us joy. Amour is not so black and white
as the drones of the strict world would have
us believe. Man and woman are not bound
to serve and obey but to love with a
passion like red hot flame that can never
be smothered. And yet, ours is as the
sun rises over a modern world that clings
to old beliefs but like the Phoenix of legend
we will rise from the ashes as the understanding
moon rises in the distance. As the night's
embrace cloaks us, we will be set free.
