Sweet Gypsy

It has been weeks since I have seen the moon.
But tonight, 

the stars shine bright as she lays at quarter site
And of course-
this makes me think of you.

I hope you are  well
I hope a part of me still lingers in your heart
I hope you know... 
(a silent whisper- I love you still)

Too many days have past
too many worlds apart
I have a picture of you

 that has  worn old by my gaze
yet the memory of your beauty 

remains etched in my mind
You are my eternal inspiration
my muse
my ghost

And the stars close their eyes

 as the moon  shines her light
Sweet Gypsy tango in my heart 

 lose your soul with me tonight

 make believe that we are not apart

Sweet Gypsy Rose
