Twilight

If only for once Dusk and dawn came together Us beasts, those animals If only twilight would last forever… Dancing in the daylight Dreaming of the moonlight Howling at the night sky The horizon’s skylight Overwhelms the dark night The moon sinks on the skyline And the sun begins to rise Then, when the moment’s just right Suddenly it’s twilight All creatures of the night Wonder for the last time Seeking a place to hide “I want to touch the light…” “This light is so unnatural, I prefer the moonlight.” “Beasts live in the sunlight. We’re safe from them at night.: Once at day, once at night We run together beneath the sky Once at day, once at night Our worlds collide, day and night Dusk and dawn alike. Us beasts, those animals Once a day, twice a light Once every twilight. I wake up and turn on my light It was just a dream, A dream of living in the night Such a beautiful dream So as the sun begins to rise Once again, I close my eyes And dream again of twilight.
