Twilight

Fervently, I await, for the sunbeams to ebb,

Fervently, I await, for twilight to descend

 

Depraved Is my pneuma, vile are my thoughts

They say, for I revere what the night plots

 

Say, what they may, for remiss they are

That sewed with night tide, are fantasies of my star

 

With dreams decimated, breaths wiped in a blimp

She tiptoed to heaven, my lilliputian imp

 

Come night, she frollicks in my dreams, hugs me tight

In a better place I am, she says, cocooned from evil sprite

 

At peace I am, for the place she is in, safeguards her from

Every perversive vice, every malicious intention, hence

 

Fervently I await, for the sunbeams to ebb,

Fervently I await, for twilight to descend
