One long night,

With wind howling,

And frost tapping window panes,

We stayed laying on the bed,

Staring into each others eyes,

With a fire crackling in the fireplace,

I smiled a little,

When your fingers grazed my face,

Or stroked my hair,

One long night,

In the cover of darkness,

And oppressive trees,

With wind nipping at the doors,

I close my eyes,

Letting your fingers trail across my cheek,

I open my eyes,

Once again you are gone,

Nothing but a memory and dream,

I am not young like I was then,

I am frail,

With withered lines on my face,

But the thought of you,

How soon I will see you again,

Makes me smile.
