While the city slumbers,
lost in dreams so deep,
The world rests,
weary from the day's long toil.
Windows darkened, not a single light agleam,
Only the moon, everbright, guards a night's dream.

Clouds overpass, drifting in gentle waves,
Winds whisper secrets of faraway lands.
In this serene silence, I walk alone,
Like a wanderer, treading my terrace,
lost in life’s ecstasy.

Stars gently dim and fade,
constellations smile down upon us.
They mingle in a delight.
The winds brush upon my hair,
as they whisper,
Things they've seen in far lands.

Secrets they tell,
What the words can't say,
The winds always can.

The moon, guiding
in this tranquil solitude,
As I wander the terrace,
a silent song plays in my heart.

❤️

And there she is, dancing among the winds,
Trailing towards me, her presence a beacon.

Moonlight covers half my face, 🌗
and now hers too, 🌓
As she draws near,
her hand reaching for mine.

In this solitude, our love finds its place,
In these midnight hours, the night just belongs to us.

And as we stand together,
bathing in the moon’s glow.
She looks to the stars, the celestial band.

And she was pointing to the moon,

but I was looking at her hand.
