Shadow's Arms
Addison
6 June 2003
At midnight hour when dreams awake
Phantom guests a visit make
Sweet embrace I do not fear
Shadow's arms cast visions clear
Down cobblestone and narrow street
Anxious hooves keep steady beat
By will alone they lead the way
To Eden's home where love does lay
Past snowlit field and bending pine
A beacon light through bough does shine
Of stone and wood the walls are made
The fire's warmth with kindling laid
Content to fill on wine and bread
With captive eyes our souls are fed
From passions wont we cannot hide
A thousand joys in touch confide
Hear and now I seek to last
But refuge in dark's guard has past
Silent words to nights depart
My solice that I have your heart
At dawns fast hour when dreams find sleep
Phantom guests I long to keep
Swept away to midnight's door
'Til shadow's arms will come once more
