She

She

A Poem by Aethereal
"

A girl as twilight

"

She

 

When she comes to me

under twilight skies

with her wine dark sea

deep enchanting eyes,

 

then we cease to be

held to worldly ties

as reality

begs the moon to rise.

 

Men may not foresee

how she nullifies

every fantasy

that preoccupies

 

pen and ink that's free

to idealize

to the nth degree

moods that they surmise.

The twilight hour, a period of many possibilities. Between the approaching darkness and the surreal pastel shades in the sky, one is truly left quite vulnerable to let wonder, desire and temptation in to their mind, .."She". "She" not a mere person but the regret, the pain, the excitement, the loss, the overwhelming sensation of love, fear or remorse that we camouflage so well in the bright sun light, that peaks in these fragile hours.

We are both inspired and bewildered by the euphoria of the hour, an "awakening", a realisation a spiritual moment.. that we let her in.. wondering all the what ifs, missed opportunities, past mistakes, lost lovers, lost connections.. letting your imagination go wild.."we cease to beheld to worldly ties"

And sometimes in our weakest of moments, we let her "nullify" us, we act on these feelings, our impulses throwing caution to the wind and risk the crumbling of the usual familiar, they system that works.. call your lost love and say that you still love him, buy the biggest bouquet of flowers for your wife..drive over to your mothers house to give her the longest hug, or tell your high school nemisis that you have forgiven him..

Some of us turn to silent words etched on paper with a heavy hearted pen, that result in beautiful pieces of work on Writes Cafe :)

Thank you for sharing your gift with us. I was so inspired. Beautifully written.

I read this a few times and it meant different things to me each time. Always a great sign of a universal connection, and of a talent to tap into the human psyche. Loved it.

Really excellent portrayal of the depth of twilight's beauty. I commend the rhyme scheme and the structure. The stanza that got me was:

"then we cease to be
held to worldly ties
as reality
begs the moon to rise."

Well done as always!

No more words, Ae. I just like this poem. It's interesting and intriguing because it's from a man's POV. LOL.
As usual, excellent rhyme scheme.
