| ~Between Them An Afternoon~ � by The Magus I hold the night. These skies wait for you... Where the gypsies dance, and minstrels sing. I saw this tale within your soulful eyes... Of two lovers, separated by the skies. The sun... Rose for me... She was beautiful...as light. The moon... He set before she could rise. He sleeps, waiting for tonight... As one rises, the other sets... Darling, when will I hold you next? He misses you, we are always a sky apart. She knows me...and all I wish could be. Time and space, separated by chance... We are as distant as a cherished memory. When could the sun embrace the moon? When between them lies the afternoon... ~Published in "The Silence Within", and "The Sounds of Poetry". Written for a girl, who I always seemed to be missing across the hours and the distance, in so many ways.~ |
