Somewhere, sometime on this planet,

Through mist and the midnight blue sun

At the end of one chapter, effulgent,

Lighting day will return that someone.

Crepuscular shadows are lurching,

Lulled by his adventurous gaze,

In retrospection no longer indulging,

She will greet tomorrow’s embrace.

She moves steadily, clad in new mettle

And engulfed in the splendour of life,

He is there, and together they’re walking

Past delirium and purposeless strife.
