Dawn
Rays of light mottle an atmospheric canvas
Varnished with a saddened hue of blue
One requires the other
Alarm clocks chime the birth
Vocalized stretches alert commencement
Rising spines challenge each mind
to acknowledge gratitude
Whether expressed or not
Fate marks an autographed message
which lays the foundation for maturity
And growth...blossoms
A breeze that captivates flesh
A song that whistles its own etymon
Begging for style
Ignoring rhetoric
As street lights decompose
The life before the night before
Exposed.
She never belonged to him anyway.
The skyline explains
The fate that was chosen
Froze.
The night was ours
The morning belongs to no one.
