A Perfect Moment
By Midnight Phoenix
Tonight I took the long way home
Even though I grew tired and weary
The moment felt perfect
Passing under the lights
Twisting and turning
There were no stars, but I like it that way
The air gently sprinkled down upon my face
and its windy arms hugged my soul and heart
As if it knew somehow that I was bleeding inside
Memories flooded in like water through a shipwreck
Each in its own melancholic fashion
Yet I felt content in the emotions
So I embraced the mysticism dwelling within me
A lonely, inner peace overcame my thoughts
And left me entranced in its calming song
With the continuing massage of the cool, misty night air
I was left paralyzed in a sweet sorrow
Tonight I took the long way home
Even though I grew tired and weary
The moment felt perfect...
