Twilight's color is ashes of roses Horizon is crimson as the sun sets Round cerulean sky decomposes To invite a charcoal night love begets Ivory stars form a covering shawl Lovers swish absinthe in dim candlelight Toast to shadows that float upon the wall From lambent flames in a passionate night Candles melt to their porcelain holder Night turns darker like obsidian glass Moonlight's smoke embraces lips that soon smolder Silhouettes, until dawn can trespass Wrapped in soft sable fulfilled and content A divine passion was inhaled and spent
