More than One Night

I’m beautiful, but

just for one night.

The everything, you

dream about in life.

And, you’ll love me

erratically, fearless

midsummer’s night

breeze.  Feel my

chaos, falling

slowly into dreams.

I’m magical, time’s

sensual feast.

Your fantasy, for

but a night.

And, what of me

this enchanting frenzy,

of color and life.

Suffering here, no

calling comes

to my dreams.

I’m flawless, to

those without sight.

Their every truth,

accosts my life.

And, sudden insights

take them away.

To other’s hearts,

where they shall stay.

All I am, lasts

for more than one night.
