Beauty In Phases
Twilight Tears

Adventure awaits in the dark
Come, don your wings and witness pure magic, as the moon devours the night
Offering wanderers sweet crumbs of knowing, satisfying the hungriest of hearts
Collecting his tears that glisten like starlit streetlights
Along the face of the city
Burning through surrendered daydreams in an instant
Watch as cotton candy clouds swirl in whisper-like motion
Crawling wildly over dappled trees in golden fields
Revealing hints of seasons to come
Promising release from contention
Becoming enamored by the stars and their beautiful ability to hang effortlessly, without strings.
Leading us to wonder what it might be like to dangle freely while floating on the breeze
Joining the moon in orbit, experiencing the exhilaration of change in direction and phase
