Torturous Twenty Four.

Forlorn in midnights vastness Twinkling cousins as patient companions She covets him Her blushing glow pacifying the empty night Descending toward dawn Anxious Lingering He will come for her… Slowly the stars fade out and night dissipates in morning mist Ocean breezes begin murmuring the promise Life begins again this new day He ascends the heavens upon brilliant light His rending ardor glowing sultry upon her face Almost becoming one they embrace in chaste love Only for the moment before she falls away Mirroring souls caught in a cyclical lovers dance Reaching out for the other at dawn and dusk Losing one another time and again Forlorn within the midday skies Gentle clouds and albatross as patient company He yearns for her His heavy radiance granting the gifts on the new day Descending towards twilight Restless Lingering She will come for him…
