When the sky lost it all...
darkness kissed a precious soul,
won a threatening golden knight,
a savage heart with a flaming thirst.

Intrigued I came closer...
a turbulent wild Lion I found,
intense eyes, full of hunger...
fresh blood all over the ground.

Seduced by imminent danger...
dazzled by the red moon light...
through his fire, I stepped in,
and darkness lost the fight.

What a beautiful chimera!
Our colours changing hue...
his heat, my new home...
his heart beat, my lullaby...
but forced to say goodbye.

When no hope is left in sight...
in my dreams we find each other,
your captivating smile always heals me,  
treasured gift from the night.
