Twilight


I gazed upon a twilight stricken sky and watched as a stealthy night slowly glugged away the ecru streaks
An event so shortlived..that no one would remember of to speak
Yet a lasting impression it leaves
A craving for such caramel coloured evenings deep within it weaves
The desire to witness such poignant beauty time and again
A sense of loss without experiencing pain


My line of vision darkens as the night gets shrouded in stars
And I lose the sensation of drowning in liquid flames
That caress my being and soothes my soul
I want to be a part of the golden brown glow a little longer
For just a while I want to indulge in this momentary happiness, feel content, feel whole
Even as a sneaky dusk steals away this warm cloak in exchange for some twinkling orbs
I don't lose hope
I know a twilight is just around a corner, on maybe another not so eventful day
Until then I would wait to feel the chilly warmth of  a camel dyed sunset, with a heart that has yet to be led astray..
