The Crimson Twilight

Abutting a gleaming crimson twilight
awaited a soul for him to arrive.

Tracing the silhouette of his footsteps
the only possession he left behind.
She counted the nights and days that dawned
just for him to arrive.

Her thoughts lingered on him
and her eyes in a perpetual mirage.
Gone astray with those golden words
are gone astray her mind.

Beyond the fathom of the desert
or the charisma of the wind,
those enigmatic moments of secrecy
unfolded within.

Her fragrance set out to pursue his path.
Her shadow behind the curse.
Out on a quest she went to seek
what was never hers.

Prolonging the search for him
with the love for him insane
perplexed and lost in the crimson eve
she still waits for him in vain.
