A Ghazal by Adi Heller

You are reflecting the moonlight tonight
Candles are lit, everything's right tonight

Oh, the love that we've shared for our whole lives.
Please be more than just polite tonight.

I'm far too hopeful for my own good.
Pitiful. I'm singing 'Tonight Tonight'.

Another candle surrounds each of us—
No booster seats-we've lost our height tonight.

Shadows walk with me but don't talk to me.
Maybe I'll get into a fight tonight.

I'll protect you from ghosts and skeletons—
I won't let you die of fright tonight.

So much Beauty in the stars and your eyes.
Adi's looking past the skylight tonight.
