THROUGH THE NIGHT
Through the night
within the room in which they stayed
through the night.
The candles shed their shifting light
upon the bed in which they laid
as curtains by the window swayed
through the night.
Through the night
upon his chest her long black hair.
Through the night
as candles shed their shifting light
consumed by love they sought to share
in ecstasy in passions snare
through the night.
