DUSK

The dusk
awaits patiently,
Neither here
nor there…
For the comforting
night,
Not far behind…
Like me…
I am dusky like
the
Bewildered dusk
I wait for the
Enveloping darkness,
Tired of the
ambiguities
Of my life…
Fair?
Dark?
Always
somewhere between
Neither here
nor there
In a limbo
with you…
You say you
love me
I am the dusk…
Do you see the
darkness?
That lurks…
Stealthily waiting…
To plunge me
into
A bottomless pit?
Or do you see
the light?
I show to you
and the world
Hiding my woes
and lost dreams?
A façade nearly
perfected.
I am dusky…
Suspended in
between
Wanting to
surrender to you…
Yet restraining
the reins
Of my passion…
Do you know
me?
This shadowy
self…
I wait to be
on the other shore
Fair or dark perhaps…
What would you
choose?
If only
partially…
For giving
yourself
Was never your
intention…
I am the dusk…
A duality…
Know me
I am to you
what I portray…
Never the
whole
Part light
Part dark
Always unfathomable,
Seductive…
