Serenade

Just a fading moon

In the naked sky

The twilight shades the colour

Of the sadness in your eyes

With the haziness of sunset

The darkness closes in

Another day is over

One more goodbye

In a sky of scattered stars

Shimmering like embers

The flames of hope

Are burning out

We walk out on love

Cradled in silence

Disappear into the night

To the moon's serenade
