"The sun a gold coin on the sea / Then the silver of ecstasy"


Poem Artwork

Nightfall

The time has come I love the best
Of all
The way I find out west is west:
Nightfall

Wherever I am I watch the sun
Disappear
While it shines up a morning begun
Far from here

But while it is gone the stars and the moon
Against the black
Are so beautiful that it seems too soon
When it comes back

Where all of the magical secrets of night
Are spread out for me
And all is of silver (both tarnished and bright)
And of destiny

When night falls it is fallen with me now
Before we rise
Till morning breaks the other way somehow
To lift the skies

As lifting all of the fallen then
Day returns
Falling and rising are equal when
Hope still burns

A lonely candle in the dark
I wait
Being the fire though but a spark
Of fate

And I too wait for morning but
The end
Of day is mine no matter what
To spend

The sun a gold coin on the sea
Then the silver of ecstasy

The time has come I love the best
Of all
The way I find out west is west:
Nightfall
