Burning Sky

Succumb to me
My angel
Of brightest night.
I desire
To embrace you
Until we are
Melded
Together–
Fierce sunlight
And shimmering
Night shine–
Intertwined in
A chaotic sky.
Close your heart
To the poisoned rain,
The tormented clouds,
And the cold stars
That whisper
“You can’t.”
Hear only,
Feel only,
Our collective heartbeats
Singing
“But we will.”
This is right
And eternal.
We shall spend
Forever
In a perfect twilight,
Each consumed
By the other
Until all that remains
Are myths
Of a time
When there was once
Both sun
And moon.
