Serenade
In her bed, I softly close my eyes,
Weary from watching her in peaceful sleep,
Yet, an eerie sound awakens me,
Darkness hides what secrets it may keep.

Skeletons in closets, secrets to hold,
Whispers of shadows, hauntingly unfold,
Muggy air wraps like a shroud,
Shivers crawl, Fear’s icy grasp enfold.

But in her embrace, her tender call,
Her voice, a soothing melody to my soul,
Safe and home, I am hers,
Love’s symphony envelops me whole.

The scent of lavender fills the air,
Soft moonlight dances on the floor,
Her touch, a gentle breeze so fair,
As the night hums its lullaby evermore.

By the love that binds us in the night,
Amidst enigmatic melodies’ flight,
A haven where love’s flames burn bright,
In her arms, I find protection and delight.
