Solstice

The darkness, is just the shadow of the moon

Painted on the earth,

Painted in the wills of lovers

In our Ferris wheel romance

In a ritual solstice

When time clicks its clever heels

We’re too far away to hear the echo

In the bittersweet darkness

It’s as quiet as a nervous mouse

As quiet as an empty house

In our hearts of four walls

In the shadows painted on us

With every tiny step

Every tired toe to kiss goodnight

Tuck them off to bed

It will just be you and I

In our four quiet walls

They’re so polite for us

In the sweetness in our eyes

In those walls

Spying like a pink panther on the run

We were a faint embrace

A faint echo

A faint shadow of romance
