A burning flame engulfs my heart
As I gaze into the midnight sky
Lighted by a crimson moon
Blanketed by the stars twinkling lights
Ghostly clouds twirl around
As if they are dancing to a silent ballad
A soft wind blows across my flesh
Sending shivers up and down my spine
Enamored I am-I am in a trance
My body begins to sway
The scent of jasmine seduces me
Now there is no escape
Invisible arms lift me up
Cradling me in their embrace
Holding me tight yet the touch is so light
A loving comfort-I feel safe
A soft wolves cry echoes into the night
How magical it sounds to me
I slowly slip off into a sleep
My dreams become my reality
