Twilight Among Towers (filmcomposer) Wk - 5

In Twilight Among Towers

In the twilight,

She dreams again of the moment

When she no longer retreats

In fear like an echo from the far wall of a canyon

A ghost

An image

A shell of the promises

Life held out to her long before,

She dreams of bold desires

And the rushing rapids

Of youthful exuberance

That once found purpose shaped by determination

A river, broad and fine and still

Until battered by indifference

Severed by synthetic needs

And artificial desires that filled

Sleepless nights among dominant towers

And frightened howls of souls

She dreams of the moment more often now,

Of returned respect

Of forgotten regret

Of all things granted

She dreams of these things more often now

And not alone
