i’m feminine as the pale moon’s light

 

The toughness hiding beneath your shirt,

Have you been weary, all day hurt?

Has she been barking with no remorse?

Has life been cutting you off your course?

You know you can pour it all on me tonight,

I’m your slave, your shadow, your guiding light.

Tell me softly where you crave delight—

For I’m feminine as the pale moon’s light,

My skin glows gold in this sunlit night.

I don’t care if you fade at dawn’s first sight,

Just stay with me — I’m yours tonight.

Oh baby, life’s a glass of ancient pain,

We sip it deep, we don’t know names.

We choose to sin in every game,

As you draw near, I feel your flame.

Oh love, why wear that cloak of shame?

No need for truth — I’ll take the blame.

You prayed to God to taste beneath my silk kimono,

Yet still, an enigma is what I remain, solo.

Oh baby,

Honey,

Whisper all your pain.

I’ll call your name,

And call again —

Your name.
