oh sweet and unforgiving darkness,
how good you are to me
in all unspoken blasphemy,
finding refuge when theres tragedy
with open eyes
cant see through your guise
a bittersweet demise
scorches my lies
with all my sin
seeping and pouring through the skin
for twas the witching hour
all who know this fear and cower
the chidren crying while theyre flying
in the darkness they are dying
humbug! believe not, there falter not
see between the twilight or have you forgot
a soaring dawn or the euphoric nightfall
im enraptured, maybe ill be captured
but for now ill go to bed and sleep.
Appeared with the rare golden light,
The mesmerizing twilight,
Like the orange skin,
Almost everyday it is seen.
The rain is the archenemy,
Of twilight to say precisely,
Since it paints the sky with dark cloud,
Wrapping numerous romantic hearts in shroud.
Like a devotee before God’s altar,
I keep praying for that magic moment to appear.
And the sky took with light
Reflected in my eyes; beaming
Feeling lighter and bright
Submerging my soul; dreaming
I’ve fallen into the crescent
A tight woven bond
Enriching the present
A long road too fond
A candle in the distance
Awakens the depths inside
A higher purpose of existence
From you, I cannot hide
I have fallen in to your grace
No sense of time; still
A torch for my darkened place
Adventures in twilight; surreal
There’s moments in twilight
Where delightful exuberance soothes.
Before the dawn,
My existence, roused.
Laying with clouds of plenty;
Where sublime pleasure plays.
Wishing this half-light will linger,
And stay throughout the day.
Silent are the birds,
And dancing are the trees.
These desolate hours;
Bringing me to my knees.
The stunning glow surrounds;
Shooting like stars overhead.
I’d follow this twilight,
To anywhere it lead.
Go on and just let it rain
Rain on down
I don’t care
Anyhow
Keep on washing
This pain away
I don’t care
She’s gone away
Twilight’s moonlight
Shines against the sun
Hasn’t taken over yet
But I know it’s won
Just like how I feel right now
Numbness sets on me
Taking away how I felt
What we could’ve been
Hell ya rain is a good thing
Because where would I really be
Without it taking away my thoughts
And all my memory
Without my past
I have a future
So just go on
Rain on down
I don’t care
Anyhow
Keep on washing
This pain away
I don’t care
She’s gone away
In
the twilight
of my existence
I am renewing my
faith.

Fading into the twilight,
Yet, never able to hide.
Running has fast has you can, yet never able to escape.
It is our existence, it is our demise.
It is mortal, but it will never die.
It brings happiness and it brings sadness.
It has many paths, yet they all lead to the same place.
Every path is an experience and every experience is a lesson.
To live this is the only goal, to survive is aftermath.
“To live is to suffer, but to survive; well that’s to find the meaning in the suffering”.
