Tonight
 
The skies stretch beyond the boundaries.
Tonight, she escapes from my memories,
like the sky as she is,
with the vastness of the seas,
it is inevitable that the flow shall never cease.
For she shall remain, till' as long as I live.
If there ever be another try,
this time round I'll never cry,
but as hopeful as it seems,
the battle, I still can't win, it seems.
Tonight, the world displays a different scene,
so that I may venture to where I've never been,
but I'm all by myself, tonight.
I miss the presence that serves my light.
Walking along the lonely beach,
where forever I shall remain meek.
The weak waves frolicking,
I can hear them singing.
Normality strikes me but I know,
there's a sun with a new glow.
Tonight, I'm drifting closer to my dreams,
pulling away from my life seams.
Slowly, stepping, into the portal,
completely absorbed, in the new world.
And to my joy, I was not burnt,
gaining more to what I've already learnt.
Tonight, Cupid gives me another chance,
to invite her to another dance.
And tonight, the stars shall shine,
like they were when she was mine ...
