Dark Illuminator

Fractured thoughts
invade
leaving impressions:
Word read; your name said;
golden sunbath on country grass.
A million dollar smile invites, "Stay awhile."

Echo's voice
nearer your ghost.
Love's name,
passion flame of wanton desire,
My Lucien,
ignites your claim.

Body ablaze,
heart to cinders
sifting through ash memories
leaving of embers-
shadows darkening.
Night calls as light falls.

Yet glimpses appear,
brilliantly clear,
'twixt is and was
with no clear cause
or logical reason;
my darkened light of every seasons.
