Perfection at Dusk

As day turned night you saw Love and knew it as such. 

In a shared moment, your heart became illuminated through the last glimmers of a setting sun.  

You longed to make it last– to hold that moment forever. 

Though, like the inevitability of the earth's movement, and the illusion of the sun’s daily descent– you parted. 

Not for long however, for true love recognized at dusk is as synchronized with the rising of the sun– as it is with its setting. 

The love that parted under yesterday's sky begins each day anew and ends with the splendor of new promises and magnificent horizons.
