MITCHEL MONTAGNA
Twilight

Twilight is the longest time
And still, it moves too fast
We hear its tones of darkness chime
then moonlight beams at last
​
Colors deepen, soon to fade
Dense fog rolls up a hill
Sorrow hovers in the shade
as if a numbing chill
​
We cling to rafts of memory
We’re yanked around the bends
pummeled by an angry sea
By night, our fever ends
​
And so, regret then quickly came
Horizons dimmed from sight
The past burned to a glowing flame
consuming dark and light
