[hometext] => The fleeting moments of twilight have the ability to reveal what can not always be seen...
[bodytext] => Thriving apathy leads to a sense of perpetual loathing for the turning of the day But then there are those few moments of glory amidst the twilight that time forgot to take away I’ve lost faith in the idea that I could relate to a world that so swiftly puts me down I’ve lost hope of that miracle that will fall from the sky and help me not to drown Weightlessness is overrated compared to the feeling of drowning slowly Stuck surrounded by the missteps and vulgar monotony that has come to define me So often you hear of beauty in every angle of the sunset, but what of the sunrise It’s those brief fleeting moments when the world is true to itself before completely opening its eyes There’s magic in a rhyme, as it unlocks the mystery in human emotion Something of substance—something of quality, deeper than the deepest ocean It is a slight shimmer of secrets that at one time were meant to go unheard But they clutter concrete thought until there is an air of abstraction to every word It’s in the pale neutrality of twilight that we find the clarity to make decisions on our fate Thriving sympathy sends me on a path to remembering someday, but I’m afraid it’s a million miles late Light turns to dark as day becomes night, and each change pushes someday a bit farther away For heaven’s sake the sky is falling down on me, still I can’t find the perfect song to play A walking conundrum, I stand in disbelief at the wonderful, unapologetic magnificence of twilight All mixed up and I don’t know what to do with the dichotomy of wrong and right With the faded sky turned all blue again, an unsettling fever settles over life and misery Smiles hide in those few escaping moments of every day that reveal the truest side of me [comments] => 1 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 22 [informant] => Faithfully_a_Wallflower [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
