Dusk and Summer

Life inside blossomed in the darker side of twilight,
when your face was all I had to hold on to in the dark.
Then you spoke, and I knew what the sun was like again,
and you touched my pallid skin, and I was blinded by the spark.
Warnings inside couldn't keep me away from the summer,
blinding light of my personal sun, my savior, my death and rebirth;
you told me I should be afraid and we shouldn't be friends,
and that you were indeed an abomination to life and earth.
Something so beautiful, fragile underneath a cold exterior
couldn't be evil, wrong in any way; how could I leave you now?
I knew your secret, and now they all stare as we walk together-
is there any other way to be, because I really don't know how
I made it this far without you; was I dreaming through it all
to find you, and just in time, did I get myself to wake?
Or is this now a dream I find myself in with you?
Reality never was this sublime, and now I know which road to take.
No longer lost, eyes open wide, taking a chance offered few;
losing myself in the darkest light of dusk and summer,
I will take whatever road is taken next to you.

Author notes

Well, I own all four books-I've read the first three 3 times. lol And I've seen the movie twice. Since this is a prewrite, I will try to enter a new one, too, but this one isn't very old.

    I didn't really at first get that this was about twilight and then it all just came together around the middle. I really liked the imagery and the language that you used. I thought it was a really beautifully described.
    Well done and good luck.
    Thank you for the lovely poem.

    Powerful. Deep, Dark and enthralling. "Then you spoke, and I knew what the sun was like again,
    and you touched my pallid skin, and I was blinded by the spark" i was awestruck by these words. A truly masterful piece. Keep up the good work. I hope the contest goes well. - T
