The Night Will Only Know

By:  Chris Avidano

 

The night will only know

Of the love that I hold

Locked away inside

A heart made of stone.

 

The night is my world

Where I am one of the few

Able to show no emotion

But feel it all inside of me.

 

The night holds me tight

Not letting me slip

Into a day where the light

Takes me under control.

 

The night stirs me inside

Generating a passion

For a world of darkness

That is deep and fulfilling.

 

The night will only know

How I long to bring you to me

Taking the very life you know

And merging it with my own.

 

The night stops me

From making you part of me

Knowing that you are too pure

To ever walk with those of the night.

 

The night will only know

How it pains me to let you go

But I know it was right

And no one will prove me wrong.
