Twilight Shine Bright
Sunday, January 2, 2011, 4:56 PM


Sitting by twilight
With only a lone star in sight
She contemplates her fate 
And some doubts that refuse to abate


Flitting from the subconscious
To the conscious
Hazy recollections of unshed tears
And veiled fears


A face so impassive, once in a while
Is punctuated by half a smile
Reminiscing the days
Of careless laughter and wild ways


Locks as dark as a raven strewn so
To conceal a furrowed brow
And strange concoctions of emotion
Bubbling over an inferno of her own creation


Remnants of what has been
Lay hidden amid shadows, unseen
Staring at the moonlit awning overhead
Light brown eyes betray the unsaid
