Pastel paintbrushed skies
How you hasten shadows
gently darkness comes hither
slivers of
starlight
slowly darkness sweeps and ties
and binds, thoughts
hidden inside as deep as marrow
the wonton urges that forces and fuels us to follow
fantasies- forbidden and formidable-fought
tho precarious and unpredictable
the spirit stirs even in slumber
all through the sweet dark
the souls muses in nocturnal nuances
rise oh soul with the sun
forge with its upward rays
another start
another day.
