The fading rays of sunlight
Basks your form in a warm, mellow glow
Your statuesque silhouette quivers silently
(with) Reverberations of heart-wrenching grief

As ebony cape of night drapes itself around golden orb
Graceful streams of mercurial flow
Springing unbidden from sorrowful pools
Cascade down slender cheekbones

These broken sobs
They sound so hollow
Each one shallower than before
Chipping away at your strength
Draining your mortality with every breath

The contour of my shade melds with yours
Encompassing you within my arms
I lend you the warmth of my soul
Dampening my cheeks
I dry your tears away

I feel your fear
Fear of that ethereal world of night
Falling through endless shadows
Into the abyss, that bottomless chasm
Out of memory, Out of time

I promise you,
You and I will meet again
Join in embrace once more
The warmth of our hearts entwining
The tendrils of our immortal soul

Across the darkness, Morning’s light beckons
Incandescent orb peeks through its obsidian veil
Its warmth softly caressing your skin
The time has come, farewell
Go now, sleep now
I will join you in time
