Moonlit Song Of A Nightingale

Silent night, peaceful hour
Dreams fading in time
Turn into silver waterfall 
In moonlit midnight
Chasing the shadows for an embrace of silence
I lie on the grass, fresh touch of green
Singing a song of forgotten harps of awe
Bearing within pale smile of a childhood dream
I lie on the grass, sweet kiss of dew
Withering dawn beyond longing world
Heart follows first nightingale’s song
Watching the stars above I see the world 
Beneath as if I am flowing through pale moon’s face
Still bearing a dream for the child who cares
For a friend whoever dares to change this world

Keeping old oath

For a heart of love
I see those ever dreams 
A nightingale still locked in the cage
I hear all the songs
Walking through reality’s maze
All night wishes I dearly caress
Time flows still writing a story from the very beginning
I forgot my first rhyme loosing this part for another dwelling story
The story that nightingale will sing
Child’s heart will caress so dear
In the end of another chapter of life
I will bear this first fading sight
Petal falls for a dawn reawakened 
For every dream night has once taken
Moonlight embrace I’ve entered 
For all my daring dreams
Time flows still writing a story from the very beginning
I retold my memories, deep cleansing waters of time fleeting
