When Night Falls

When night falls softly on the land,
And stars like diamonds light the sand,
I think of you, my shining star,
No matter where or near or far.

The dark may hide the world from sight,
But your love is a guiding light.
It leads me through the coldest hours,
A steady warmth, a blooming flower.

In dreams, I hear your whispered name,
A song that sets my soul aflame.
It wraps me up in tender care,
And lifts me from the depths of despair.

No fear can stand when you’re around,
Your love’s the pulse, the steady sound.
That keeps me safe, that keeps me whole,
A quiet strength within my soul.

So when the night grows deep and wide,
Know you are always by my side.
My love, my light, my endless call—
You are my rise, my after all.
