Temptations

I stand still

I stand

And watch the tree move

The clouds are shattered

A foggy purple one

Dragging it's scrambled clan

A foggy blue one

Gathering it's little pop corns

A giant gray one

Dispersing and flocking back

One of those long daylight days

A late evening sky

I stand still

And notice

The tender motions of the tree

Which is almost invisible

Even the tiny stroke

Seems breathtaking

Yet so simple

As the life itself is,

I wait for the darkness

To remember what it's like

When the evening stumbles to night

To catch the exact moment of magic

I stand still

The trees tremble,

Sodium lamps come to life

And the leaves begin to glisten

I look above at the sky

And it's mildly dark all of a sudden

I turn and look behind

Half of the other sky is already black

Like two different worlds

I exactly notice the path

The light passes to darkness

The wind turns too cold

I pull up my hoods and shiver

My heart jumps realising

The view I'm stuck in,

A happy canvas painting

Colors that reflect life

A peace in all it's motions

I stand still

And watch the trees move

It's night and a smile fills my face.
