Nightfall
My breath stretches out before me
Tendrils of my soul
Searching ever outward
Dissipating without success
The purple haze of sunset
Lingers lovingly
As darkness begins to blanket
Everything in a soft caress
Stars slowly emerge
Shyly peaking out
From the remnants of sunlight
To bravely shine
The moon blooms fully
Her soft edges glow
To fill the void of night
With gentle love
I close my eyes
Inhale to bursting
Taking in the scent of the air
And so I feel as one with the world
