Night Lights

I.
And we, by candlelight,
By a moon unseen,
Breathed in an ocean of doubts
And exhaled simple lines.

II.
"Tonight," she said,
"I have chosen."

III.
Tibi sum, domine.

IV.
Waiting in the wings a
Voice
Crying out for an encore,
An encore!

V.
"Once spoken it is true,"
She said.
"I have promises to keep
And miles to go,"
She said,
"Miles to go before I begin to dream."

VI.
By candlelight and a moon
Hinted at only in a swallow of
Light

VII.
I have written,
Written,
Will write
A million truths to you
Before the next
Sunrise

VIII.
Tibi sum, domine,
Te amo
