all I am                     long ago, in moonlight,                     you, a goddess; i, a slave,                     found love in darkness the nights of light wine and lakeshores, of cigarettes and tears... when you were Kali, the beautiful darkness, when you were a child, crying in pain, when you were a friend, a lover, a dream when i was nothing but one man who loved you... in those nights, every second stolen from others, we lived

**********************************

those nights are gone
ten years in the past

**********************************

our nights are spent in our bed, in our house, with our beautiful daughters,                     a princess, a goddess, who want nothing more from life than to snuggle up against you and dream you are their mother, their Goddess the warm, safe arms that hold them tight the one who sings, who smiles, who laughs... you are theirs now and i am nothing but one man who loves you
