Nightfall

Heart of the breath

And sorrows of the cold.

Soul and stone,

Sadder then water,

Weighing light

As you have a gleam in your eye.

The night cries

For a necessary kindling,

For it is a time

Between ashes and roses,

And a starry sky shines

Above the land.

On a wing of the sun

Memory is no stranger

At first light.

In a humid summer you run,

Racing from the forbidden entries,

Of stars and other signs,

The gold of the tigers.
