She tithes friendship upon sunset strong,
three tenths of attention, perception of hues,
the other, a breath of golden cloud, halos
my inner being, as we calm beneath sunless sky.
Blues shade, orange and pink fade
beneath earthly visual cues,
our hands clasp, eyes clap blink-less,
when intermittent stars collapse.
Destiny pours from the rising moon,
spacial beginnings dissolve hours.
Butterfly swarms and flattered vampires
peer into our mind, blind tranquility.
Lilacs breeze scents of delicate
maneuvers, entice dew to flurry
like monsoons and wit mingle,
we spiral in cocoon's bliss.
Cat calls in the night summon
your spirit as midnight breeches
half moons of light and full moons
hidden in mysterious shadows.
You, love, are a train whistle,
enlightening blush upon facial fractals,
a pinkish glow resonates within,
as lavender imbues my essence ...
... awake, in wait, for another dusky rendezvous.
