“Night Triumphant- and the Stars Eternal.”
― Sarah J. Maas


Poem Artwork


Night departs slowly,
Quietly,
Like a lover
Slipping from your room
With coat and shoes
In hand,
Leaving only a whiff
Of his cologne behind.

c. 2011

Must not have been me. Never wore cologne. But I wouldn't violate a woman's senses with unwashed smells unless she liked them. I find men that wear cologne in the workplace repulsive. They are either hiding the fact they didn't shower or they are gay.

Otherwise, a great poem with a wonderful simile comparing the dawn with a lover slipping out.
