A fortune lies in golden disarray
Lit by the fading light on another dying day
She walks alone in a breath of air
They pass on by unaware
A goddess walks amongst us still
Caught ‘tween the chaos and the still
Her treasure hidden beneath the deep
Locked in a silent dreamless sleep
A new moon rises in the sky tonight
Her lips shine softly in its gentle light
A fire burns in the depths of her eyes
A comet blazing through a midnight sky
He will never know the taste of her scent
Or lie in her arms weak and spent
That dream has passed and its shadow stains
The secret places where love remains
I watch her from the window where I stand and wait
For a white knight that will surely arrive too late
