“When The Night Comes” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, October 3, 2026

We can take it nice and slow
Won’t need to make a sound
But even if we want to rush
Babe we’re on solid ground

You just need to give me your time
What’s lost will soon be found
Even in the dead of night
When there’s no hope around

Honey come and tell me your mind
I need to feel your soul
We just need to make our break
Somehow and take control

The first steps are the hardest ones
But they’ll never let us down
Once we get the rhythm right
Our fortune will soon abound

And when you look into my eyes
You’ll see that I’m here to stay
When you give your love to me
Our hearts find a sacred way

We don’t need to prove a thing
Just need to hold on tight
No matter what the world might say
Everything will be all right

So let me take your hand in mine
Come on love let’s do it this time
You’ve known it since that day we met
We haven’t even truly lived yet

I see my life with you
You know what we’ve both been through
We’ll figure out our plans as flow
There’s a truth here that we both know

And once we launch into the skies
We’ll disolve the compromise
And all the pain that hurt before
Will turn to find unlocked open doors

So darlin’ put your trust in me
Waitin’s been the biggest mistake
We’ve both endured too much of grief
We’ve gotta stop these breakin’ heartaches

We’ve been meetin’ while we’re asleep
Now it’s time we shake ourselves awake
And reach for those wildest dreams of ours
At last we’ve got a chance we can take

So come and find me in my own town
I promise not to be too proud
When you put your lovin’ arms ’round me
You know you’re gonna get a big smile

I’ll bring you back to my haven
You can see the life I’ve remade
We can share our hopes and dreams at last
In a love we can rearrange

We’ll figure out as we entwine
Our spirits’ bliss as we combine
The secrets that we seek to divine
Creating enchantments undescribed

And when we look back we will see
I was made for you and you were for me
As the years unveil our umwinding paths
Having found at last glory once promised

The Whole Of Me (Song)

By Athena Stairs, September 25, 2026

It wasn’t a joke

No never

Nor slight of hand illusion

Though her heart burned like a brand

And pumped within contusion

You see it cannot seem to matter

When one has waited centuries

For a man to take his rightful stand

No matter his proclivities

And if I told you what his name was

Well society would jeer at me

But she’s used to all of these games

The bloody mockery and cruelty

And she loves him just the same

Which is the way it always should be

Can’t expect the seas to open up

On just a whim when claim divinity

So I’ll tell you what I’ve said before

Under weather bleak like heavy snow

When Summer comes past ebbs and flows

And Fall reveals what we must know

That there was never a doubt when certainty

As broken fragments make the whole of me

Like a crystal shattered long ago

That still recalls its molecules

Can’t change essential particles

That will bring you home to me
