Hiding from twilight’s shadow


I look for you


Up high in the marble orchard


Fruits of gold among glass
petals


Searching for a way to bleed


Screams and tears never
accomplish anything


But neither does hope


In an ephemeral world


Emotions are useless


Running towards the crystalline
moonlight


I know you hold the key


If I only knew where the door
leads


You know there is no point to
love


So why are you still
reaching?


A fragile field of daisies is
easily swept up by the ripping wind


I always knew how much weight
the branches could hold


I waited for you to fall from
your perch


Hiding from twilight’s shadow


Running from the pain


I waited an eternity


To no avail


My heart has already chosen
the way it will go


Climbing up a tree of dust


If I falter, I know I will
collide


Your strength leads me on
with a sturdy step


I grasp your hand and look
ahead


To the twilight’s own shadow


Perched on a branch of steel


High above a field of onyx


We await
for the sun to rise


Above to the cobalt sky
