A Poem by Joshua L Stelling
Nightfall comes down
And the day does not forget
It fades
There is no abyss beyond the hill
Yet where I stand
Becomes darkness
What I saw
Turns to memory
The shivering leaves
Become shades
Ghosts embodied by the wind
Veins disappear
Your cheekbones become clear
Moreso in these shadows
Some things can be seen only in the darkness
Like the shimmering words
You spill
Curl like fairydust about the stars
Coming now down
As if there were no clouds
Some things cannot be seen in the darkness
Like the withering veins
Our age
It fades
