Sweetest Nights

Sweetest nights are made of you and I
Flying over pavement, riding across
lightning, spider-veined skies
Thunder chasing our taillight as we
disappear into the unquiet night

Sweetest nights cast shadows of you and I
Body to body, fingers entwined
Stardust clinging to your eyelashes
Meteor showers crashing
soundless waves against shores
made of shuddering sighs and fragile goodbyes

These beautiful nights sing of you and I
Sweetest notes rise with smoky
tendrils curling up toward a
glittering seaside night
Breaths of the forest lulling us to
vivid dreams of utopian futures
Glimmering behind sleep-laden eyes
