Velvet

Wait for the winter, look up at the sky

Your memory makes present what passed

It may have been years, but night doesn’t change

And summers, like sadness, don’t last

When I am gone, remember the way

The winter glows velvet at night

The light is more lovely for darkness

And darkness more lovely for light

Let the night hold what you cannot bear

Heavy black branches splinter the air

The crystalline drops of entropy rising

The snow a mirage, but you know that it’s there

Look for me deep in the dark rose sky

The grey clouds stained with the light

The night is more lovely for daytime

And daytime more lovely for night

Tread slowly, breathe deeply, serenity find you

As in cold, as in night, it may

Be sure for a moment, serenity keep you

Night yields to naught, and naught yields to day

When you’re without me, as someday you’ll be

Remember the winter, don’t cry

For I am more lovely for you, my dear

And you are more lovely for I
