Tonight, My Friend Tonight my friend became a lover too,
Relinquishing the game of hide and chase,
Discarded clothing grasping something new,
My body naked like my lover's face,
All sense of reason quickly cast aside,
My doubts dispelled with just a gentle sigh,
And nowhere left to run, nowhere to hide,
I trace my name upon my lover's thigh,
And tender kisses long into the night,
Another sleepless night, now undisturbed,
All fear of deep commitment taking flight,
And all resolve for solitude now curbed.
My friend became a lover overnight,
I watch him sleep bedecked in candlelight.
