Dusk descends on the World <br />And distance lies between us like the grave <br />Cold, silent, unforgiving <br />Where are you my Darling? <br /> <br />Yesterday, I saw a man with your form and color <br />Come up the garden path <br />And as he walked, he san gthe song of Lover's past <br />Mouth moving in soundless, fervent agitation <br />While words tumbled like half-remembered prayers from his lips <br /> <br />I saw him like a dream within a dream <br />Desire and loss etched in the curve of his back <br />Night pored like thick perfume from his skin <br />And clung like incense to the air <br /> <br />The lamp of his eyes burend the darkness <br />And my soul was reborn on the shores of his longing <br />In my haste, <br />I reached for his arms and found only the sea... <br /> <br />The wind turned with devilish delight <br />And the mournful cry of a roosting dove fractured the night <br /> <br />Tonight I dream alobe <br />Wrapped in shrouds like a crucified Christ <br />Dreaming of the one with the faraway eyes<br /><br />Vaun Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/untitled-as-of-yet-any-suggestions/
