Twilight

Her frail memory lay within the lost & found of my dreams

Inconsistent appearances cloaked with alzheimer coated venom

Destined to fade upon the undying wings of an immortal dawn

Forever out of reach of my tear-stained  hands

 

I rise and fall with the soothing waves of her smile

Death and resurrection with every gentle touch

Obliterated by the omnipotent force of perfection

Only to be reformed by the healing stream of her love

 

Unbearable sorrow crowns the morning star’s glow

My harbinger of death, rather than life

Suffocation forever grips my fragile soul

For a day is eternal when breath is birthed in her eyes

 

Come now, O’ twilight, I beg of thee

For thy humble servant cannot bear the ever flowing day

Thy magic cloak consumes mine fiery agony

When in thine child’s warmth I lay

  1. Yes twilight my favorite part of 24 hrs. Really liked that last stanza.

  2. “Inconsistent appearances cloaked with alzheimer coated venom
    Destined to fade upon the undying wings of an immortal dawn”
    This poem hits home, my best friend suffered from Alzheimer, it was very sad
    to have lost her even before she finally left. This is certainly evoking and beatiful.

  3. I love how poetry can impact every reader differently. How it can mean something different to every soul. I love the way it can be translated & related to by unique & personal experiences. I am very humbled & joyed when blessed with the honor of my creations evoking those unique & personal feelings.
    For poetry is a way to express emotion, both by the artist as well as reader.
    Thank you for investing time in my creations, friends.

  4. Just sent a replied to your poem in Spanish.
    I never know if the message goes through, it just sits there?
    does not say sent, very annoying.
