Bewitched by the heavy air Neatly lulled Gently broken Twilight weaves its rhapsody of lies 'Round and 'round Invisibility is sung As pretence removed Not even I can feel the deception Trees are delicately pencilled shadows 'gainst a hushed and fading sky Their penumbras brush the horizon Tentatively (Radiantly blackened lullaby) I can still taste it The evening is within me My eyes no longer see sunset (But the mirrored wrath of azure upon my soul) Blended with the dusk One word, one word Forever echoed, evermore It is upon my lips painted by its blues Eventide A thousand fireflies exchange vows of secrecy 'Neath the waxing moon Lights near extinguished But a few linger Softly (Precious dreams of darkness escape from the palm of my hand) Dare I ask to be crowned with vespers from the night? Or shall I dwell in quietude? (I know the way that stars will dance [fighting 'tween dusk and sunrise fair]) And the world is falling apart all around me, as angels sleep Peacefully Just grazed by the touch of my fingertips How I bid you well, to go and whisper to the dawn Leaving me here Quiet 'Tis truly but a beautiful midsummer's eve For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.--"Romeo and Juliet" [This message has been edited by IndigoEve (07-20-2003 11:18 AM).] |
