dusk.

when it came to dusk we wavered
in the blue black light we savoured
the uncertainty of what we’d find
that there was life after
tears or perhaps laughter
a collective torment in our mind

so we thought perhaps to stay
grab the shining light of a tangible day
enjoy creation a little longer
only manifestation kept deceiving
before fulfilment was believing
that’s how our resolve grew stronger

until fading senses went from day to dusk
realizing that we must
for once and all discover where it’d go
following the last breath of day
letting go come what may
a luminosity began to grow

to a startling size
far beyond our mortal eyes
until we were entirely enraptured
by a brightness of the rays
we saw our lifelong days
and moments of beauty captured

until eventually reduced
to something we deduced
was a heart beating time
in unison forever gone
from there to dusk and back to dawn
a perfect chord an exquisite rhyme

there was then no we
to be or not to be
in existence beyond space
just being itself abounded
just a note forever sounded
or a life forever graced.
