The dying night wills a pledge,
Jinxing me to second-guess,
Eyelids foresee a telling edge,
Where all so reasons undress.
Brought along your blindness,
Sweetened with a choking black,
Sleeps between us our emptiness,
We dream all that we lack.
Stars reflect on a hellenic skin,
And crescent, in your orbs I bury,
Deciphering my diary is the sin
I commit for some bad fairy.
While your dreams melt away,
Dissolving like the last candle,
I shiver and drowse it astray,
The sketchiness I couldn’t handle.
Soon this fabled night dies,
And always plays a stalemate,
You once slept in curious eyes,
Now I but sleep in a portrait.
