Darkness Unveiled

"Much anticipated encounter"

Tingling with elation,
At the prospect of seeing him..
Night darkens with;
Wild anticipation..

As the morning star
Kisses the horizon..
Through the restless darkness..

Her eyes closed
She pictures him
Coming towards her..
Her heart beats frantically;
Her bosom heaves breathlessly
Lips parted Passionately
As she feels his warmth
Envelope her..

She opens her eyes..
But is blinded by immense light.
She turns away remembering
The words of fate
"There can be no day without night,
They will co-exist.
But as banks of a river they can never meet.
Walking for eternity together
But cursed not to touch each other"

Day whispers to her to stay..
But darkness slowly ebbs away....

The anticipation of love can thrilling....and heartbreaking.

"As the morning star
Kisses the horizon..
Through the restless darkness.."

This stanza sets up the heartbreak beautifully. It is an elegant and moving poem. I suppose we all come to a time where we desperately love someone who will forever be out of reach.

Thank you for sharing this.

[J. K. Beach]

This is beautiful, Sophy! Sad, but true... especially when couched in terms of lovers (brilliant). You show a deft hand setting up the final harsh realization with your love play. Good job with this one!

[Sophy Freebirds]

Thank you sir... :) i am gratified you think so.

the longing gosh...

It's like that yin yang

where the dark end the light begins and then where the light begins the dark ends

you need both to complete the whole.
yet you can't have both at the same time.

Can you?

[Sophy Freebirds]

We can't go against the wind.. but i love doing that.. ha.. so keep waiting for the next phase of the poem.. And yea it was first the nighr and then this concept of ying yang popped in my head.Thanks fot the review Amiga.

I wasn't expecting that ending, it was all going along so swimmingly, then it all went kerplunk. I could hear Carly Simon in my head....

'chasing after some finer days, anticipation'

Love it! :)
