Dusk

The glimmer in her eyes. So alluring.
The backdrop extended towards the horizon, dyeing everything grey.
The rustling of leaves; slippers slapping the pavement.
The irpe of a sun long set.

And me.
I was there, and I was glad.
Glad that I could be of use, that I could be of help.
I thank her. For kind words amongst uncertainty.

Stars played guests in the Night's sojourn.
Glistering sequins on the velvet sky.
Lighting the earth with playful glee.
As two shadows became one.
