Spirit of the Night

Words escape me, torture me; use me.
Eyes of sapphire tease and taunt.
Your angelic voice turns me to stone,
While perfect lips haunt my every dream.
Love for you is all I know;
Chasing ghosts is not right, they say.
But I love you so, my spirit of the night.
Years will pass and I will still remember.
My fallen angel, you are gone; they say.
It’s best to forget and move on,
But who can forget someone so memorable?
The past is best left alone, some say;
Live in the present, they sob.
But for you, my dark angel,
I would gladly go back in time.
