Each Morning, Each Night

Each night, I look up to the moon
hold you and kiss you good night
with all the stars in attendance
jealous waiting with flickering sight
for me to let go and light the sky

Each morning, i long to see your face
and kiss your forehead each morning
holding the golden cup of dawn's sun
long enough to have your cheeks red
and letting you go for world to brighten

in between this day and this night
I hold you each moment of time
as a thirsty traveler holding on
to the last drop of water he has
till the oasis of evening, to replenish
