The Fire That Burns at Midnight

You came out of the sky
Like a moonbeam,
Lighting up the hidden
Parts of my mind.
Giving way to the secrets
I’ve kept only to myself.

Like a ghost haunting me
And consuming all of my thoughts,
You possess every
Part of me,
And it brings me to my knees.

The want for you grows stronger
In my veins.
The desire for your kiss
And your words,
Is like fire in my blood.

I’m overcome with the
Need to fill my empty
Vessel with the only
Thing that can slake my
Thirst,
You.

You are the Angel
I prayed for,
And the Demon that saved me
From myself.
I long for you in ways
I cannot understand.
So watch my soul burn
For you in the dark.

Because I can’t help but love you
And all your devilish ways.
And know, in my heart,
That I can’t die without the
Sound of your voice
In my thoughts.

So I’ll wait.
I’ll wait for you at midnight
Under the light of a
Full moon.
Or I’ll wait for dawn to come
With its welcoming rays.
Because you love me in my sunshine
And even in my shade.

I've always had a passion for writing. In this crazy world that we live in, I find my solace in made up words and make believe stories. Let's escape into the void and forget about it all just for a moment or two.
