Gloom and Glee
By Sheyanne Crank

A gloom slips into my eyes,
As profound as my corrupted conscience
I descend deeper into my slumber,
Then realize I am not alone
The beauty of the tantalizing silhouette could not be denied,
Yet beautiful was too diminished a word to describe
Such a magnificent creature
Her voice was like thick honey,
Her eyes were glowing suns
She whispered such sweet words to me,
About us being together for all eternity
Her lips I yearned for, the hunger almost intolerable
We held each other close, wanting the moment to go endlessly
Her recalled memories were all of her childhood and later life,
Of me as a child, Of me as a man. Of our love.
I wanted nothing more but for this to last forever
But then, On the verge of my reverie,
A blinding light is cast into my daze
Coming back into existence,
I gaze into your eyes, and though your face is different,
I know it’s you I see,
And in the many, many lives to be,
It will always be
You and me.
