Dreams At Dusk

At dusk daylight realities shy away and hide Beneath black fantasies and reasons subside Twilight traces the contours of desires Wild fantasies set aflame amorous fires Darkness dawns upon chaste conscience Casting a wanton spell over the ambience Dreams of dusk draped in capricious wants and whims Cravings and impulses over youthful ambrosia, skim Lovers bound by nocturnal trysts Elope together, quenching thirsts Pristine souls enthralled by love, entwine Drunk with the wine of love, divine Reveling in enigmas, ardent passions roar Enticed by desires, fervent emotions soar Castles of foggy love are erupted, promises made Palaces of misty desires are built, troths laid Ebony silhouettes aglow with passions, unknown Whisper words of love, forgotten and lone Further into the night when raven darkness rules above Murky moonlight chases shadows of phantom love Blinded promises, lost in the black abyss Mystic utopia fades into the chimera, amiss Moonstruck, shadows silently drift into oblivious sleep Haunted by nightmares of night, drowning down deep.
