The sun on my face
the light of my mind
clears the night
and brightens the sky.
In the heat of your eye
colours sharpen
and radiance vibrates
warmth in your smilerays.
Shadows lengthen
and the horizon then receives
the setting as we part
westward you vanish,
but east turn my eyes.
Alone in moonshade
single in shadows
left alone to watch stars
with thoughts only for tomorrow
of the prospect of
my sun never setting ?
Looking out at the rim
waiting and wondering
as curtains fade
and light returns
in the crescent of movement
powered by your eyes.
