Solar Sea

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon another century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid instead
For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime
I wish for this night-time
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping

Sorrow has a human heart
From my soul it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding the roses blooms
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's to play
Until there's nothing left to say
I wish for this night-time
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
