the moon flower & the sun ~

...danced, a symphony of nature’s waltz  
embraced, their hearts touched,  
if only for a second  
 silencing her world of midnight’s cacophony  
she longs for the sun’s warmth’s  
to last…  
to last.  
 
that moment, passed,  
all too soon, for the moon flower  
the moon flower, imprisoned  
in darkening storms,  
just a cold, lonely flower  
she waits…for the sun’s love, fleeting,  
yet let's her heart dance, under his  
shiny radiance.  
slipping off her sorrowful mantle  
     
till then not even the pixie's twinkling  
star dust, their mischief, can’t  
bring the moon flower to smile  
she’s numb, heart locked  
in cage…till the sun  
holds her in his golden rays,  
she begs for him to stay,  
he teases her, opening her petals up,  
the sun touches her with his passionate kiss,  
like magick, the moon flower blossoms  
   
she'll always drown  
in his sea of fire  
only the sun  
can quench the moon flower's desire.  
   
inevitably:  
enter twilight's hour  
though, she again, begs the sun to stay  
he finally states, "you cannot implore me  
to change,  
 i cannot remain,  
i'll always want to play."  
   
then he fades away,  
she feels herself start to asphyxiate,  
soft, moonbeam petals, kissed by emphatic night  
fae’s lips…silken webs of dewdrops  
like silvery teardrops…fall echoing her  
withered, hopeless heart,  
as emptiness pervades her soul.  
   
till the next day…  
when the sun greets the sanguine morn’  
and his love for the moon flower…  
   
begins again,  
even if just for the day...  
   
the moon flower,  
and the sun…  
   
she will always surrender to him...  
now...  
and forever.
