TWILIGHT
 


The art is called 'Twilight (2002)' by Gary Benfield and can be found at EasyArt.co.uk






Twilight

I love it
when the diffusion of light
either creates
or begins to destroy shadows.
It’s a time of
possibilities.

~~~

Life and death
swirl riotously
with the shadows
of twilight.
And no matter where you turn,
one way or the other,
ensnares you
with its smile.

~~~

It was the rapture
of your kiss
that killed me.
And the swirl
of your solstice
that gave me life.
It was the cold,
mid-day sun
calling me into its embrace
as I reached for your hand
and Winter’s touch.

~~~

Twilight
Shadows
life and death -
all assimilate
and conspire within
your icy, tempting breath.
And, I submit
with a loving sigh.
~~~

You are a time of
possibilities
released in your crystalline kiss.
