Collaboration Frank H and Cindy

TWILIGHT IS OUR DAWN Collaboration

CINDY LU: 
As evening shades... the day's moment fades.
And I sit with the setting sun... upon his delicate. 
Yet only in brevity, this shimmering upon my soul.
Woe to darkness, scampering about ... 
star's flicker, woo & glamour Yea, 
this dark of night amidst your eloquence. 
This stage before me, with thine eyes mist; 
the new day's dawn of arrival. 
Yet in this moment, I'm captive. 
Evening beckons... and truth delights. 
The heart's tithing... joys divine. 
Awakened within this dream... his delicate fading. 
Shades of gray... the city sirens, the scent of death... 
mourns her neon. 
And as I read...the poet cries the jester laughs... 
the widow dies.

FRANK: 
We awake at twilight...our kind.
Some how... the world seems easier to take...
in translucent hues of crimson...
your alabaster skin...in this light..
looks devoid of sin.

Yes... 'Delicate'...we too...
tears are easier to hide at night.
Yet we'll blunder through... 
for any taste...of night's delights...
to get us through
