Shadow Lovers..

Shadow lovers

Living a dark existence

Incongruous imagery that seems so real

Poignant with beauty from a distance

Familiar yet unknown, ideal yet surreal



Elegantly conquering the night with a dance

Anxiety mixed with excitement, although afraid

Holding on to moments, taking that chance

Remembering every movement and word said



Before the night’s tranquility flows to dawn

For the weight of time is felt heavily upon

As each second passes points to pierce

And reality emerges; they become sadden with fears

The shadow lovers shed their silent tears

Bidding each other goodbye by the sunlight’s beam

For their existence was merely a memorable sweet dream.
