Where Is My Lover
The sheer curtains blew in the wind
The open window allowed the sea and the salt to enter
The moon came to the village and its rays danced to the one guitar
Its beams danced in the beat of the dancing breeze
There she rose
Not to close the night but to become part of it
She rose alone in the dark, like the moon
She moved as one, like the wind
Her lover was not near
She wished for the moon to leave
She wanted the sun to vanquish the night
The ray of light would bring her lover home
For now the moon, the wind, the night, would not bring her sleep
Somewhere the one guitar kept a beat, a solo, a song of one
She stared into the night for the music that kept her wishing
It kept her looking into the dark
Where is my lover?
She stood until the last song called her away
The music of the guitar faded into the night softly
The sea, the salt, the moon seduced her eyes
She finally lay to sleep for she knew
Tomorrow he would arrive like the sun with all its warmth
And embrace her like the rays of passion
For she would no longer question
Where is my lover?
