Moon Set where the Sun Did
And I am here
Crass music from a distant phone
A faint horn from the street
Two pale guavas on the left
I pick up the bottle and sip from it
I stare at you, do you feel it?
Mind attempts to grab on a memory
One flash.. among many;
You know the one, only that matters.
It is a cliff;
On the cliff, she gazes into
Moon sets where the sun did
She feels a calm like never before
Shimmers in the water reflect
Like a bed of mercury
On her left is rest of the sea
She sees it meeting the hills on the right
A palm silhouette makes her appreciate the absence of light.
Grass in her hands, long breaths in her lungs
I feel that wave
The view zooms out
Fifty meters away, his back to her back
Music blasting
Long, thick locks
She feels him, over every shoulder
Not too far, yet too afar
Grass between her fingers, shimmers in the water
As moon plays with the smoke
She gazes inside,
Darkness between shimmers, or
Shimmers between darkness?
Oh how and, but they dissolve as the sun peaks
The shimmering darkness was it?
The palm is green, now
The sea is blue.
Another spell is broken
The sun calls out, over her shoulder
Did she catch that moment of twilight?
Many boats sail, as her eyes rotate
Her face to the sun, her behind to the sails
On her right,
She stares into him, as he stares into the sun
Awareness follows the calm
Did light fetch some?
The flash cuts through,
The flashes spiral through,
Jump from end to the start
Till only that remains, the end and the start.
The cliff, grass in her hands, the shimmering darkness
Their faces into the sun, his arms against her arms.
I could not tell when
And, if she came back.
Her wolf is guarding, by her side ?
For, she is there, as I am here.
