Rust descends on us now
As flickering candlelight shows our many facets
Much maligned I rest on blended knee
Raising my head as it is guided by your hands
Eyes meet eyes exposing tortured souls
Each knowing the others past before word are spoken
The last of the moons crescent glimmers silver
Darkness exposing the fragility of our humanity
The uneven rhythm of lapping waves match our heartbeat
Calming the demons that live beneath this, our skin
Each soul has met before on the fields of sunset
Painted hues of vermillion coating the sky as it once coated our hands
Yesterday ends as tomorrow begins
Both knowing that this dance lives in eternity
