Segmented Silhouettes

Segmented silhouettes inked by a setting sun; merge with ebon shadows as twilight summons Dusk. As romantic dreamers welcome Night with a kiss; azure waters reflect a blood-stained, scarlet sky. Twinkling stars confetti the ebony of space; and as darkness descends, Dusk snuffs out Sol's last light. Time appears to stand still, reality's on pause; as synchronized lovers, swim the depths of their souls. And inseparable, two souls morph into one; subservient to the whims of compliant hearts.

Awesome imagery "Ebony silhouettes inked by a dying sun portray lovers embraced" and "And azure pools reflect a tie-dyed denim sky as enchanted dreamers seal their love with a kiss". Lovely, Emile.

beautiful imagery. I was thinking the two kissing in the sky maybe were clouds. You know how they make shapes that seem so real!! Awesome final verse!
