Romantically inspired.

‘HOLD BACK THE NIGHT’

Hold back the night and wait
Don’t bring up the dawn
Stay the hand at the hour,
Lest you leave

Worlds revolve through the heavens
The moon bathes the earth with its glow
The stars fill the skies with light
So stay with me

Don’t leave with the sunrise
Don’t end the dreaming in the night
Stay close to my heart, my sweet,
And love me


By
Mary Cecil

There are those people who just make us glow, even if it must in the end just be in our dreams. Beautiful, passionate poem!
