Gloom Veiled My Heart

I wept until the bronzed edge of twilight chased prismed light from pastel skies. A shroud of gloom veiled my heart as the gatekeeper touched my arm. February 19, 2021 ~ Liberum Divisa 4 Originally written for 'Love's Affliction' Contest sponsor ~ Greg Barden

You chose well for the contest, Jenna. Love the "bronzed edge" and twilight is such a wonderful metaphor for peace or love or hope slipping away. Congratulations on your win!
