Dim The Light

Dim the light come shining through There's a picture, a picture of you. Sunshine in the morning, moon-lilting-night In the evening-tide-bright There's an angel a portal a vestal-of-white-light In my heart by my side and in my life Oh she must be a gift heaven sent A gift that can only be incorrigibly right Because no one could ever love her More than me tonight Oh-love-locket, clasp-my-sea-pearl-soul, and heart Within this her angelic-angel-light Oh tie up all these loose lingering pearls like stars Shining like pendent tears, In the solar plexus churning of our hearts: At these unearthly times, I feel I can still hear her singing old calypso songs With an inner madness so surreal It must be real. For the music, it throngs for her love within me It longs to be healed within me It longs to be fixed like a broken seal Awaiting, her princes serenade her real deal. Or it could all just be the starlight Her ebony all-enfolding- Uninhibited twilight! Oh dim the starlight Come shining through Oh dim the starlight The starlight, the starlight Lit by you. Oh my dancing, dazzling star Don't dance so-far-away-from-me Tonight, tonight You've got to encircle your mystic charms around me Spin your cocoons of love and surround me Till I'm lost like a moth in a web of delirium, Breaking out of the light That holds me in the midst of your night A captive forced fed to feed Until I can't be freed From your love Or even be bothered to breathe Without; the oxygen of your love
