Come To Me Only In The Night


Come to me only in the night;
when darkness shields

the liar’s eyes:
and truth is made irrelevant,

by passion’s weight—
...and loneliness

abides.

When all my virtue is no comfort,
and my diversions

are empty too—
come to me under 
cloak
of darkness;
for all I need my friend,
is you!

Pithy and weighty and good as all eternal truths are. Another poem of yours written in stone not water. It lasteth forever.

You know I'm no pro in the Literature department... all I can tell you is that I loved this one... very much!
