Tonight - Renaissance

In the silence of my room

With the dawn’s unfolding light

Morning songbirds in the sky

My silent prayer takes flight

Like a child…

An innocent

Of night

I always knew my lover

Gentle, strong, coming closer to me

I long to see my lover

A man in love with the world

With all the passion that he knew

He felt a sign, something new

His devotion, lost, once treasured

So (?)

In my mind I’m troubled

In my heart I’m free

I’m not afraid

I count the days to when I feel him standing next to me What to do?

My fears lay scattered everywhere!

Will he be in shadows hiding, will he listen patiently

Mirrored deep in somber dreams?

Soon this night will show its face

Its pleasures tempting, bound in grace

I stand here lost in proud desire

With open arms I’m so alive

Love is all around me now

Gold and silver flowers rare

So time has healed as time went by Favored wishes realized

I see him now, I see him clearly

A glistening star

Just like my dream!

And I will hold my head up high

Tonight!

This is my lover!

This is my love!

Gold and silver flowers rare

Have no questions, have no cares

My lonely heart has gone forever

Tearful with hope and joy

Tonight

Tonight

Tonight!
