Twilight
Concept: finding love in the most unexpected time and place and making it work despite the difference.
When I first laid my eyes on you I was mesmerized,
Your beauty was that of liquid sunsets on the ocean.
Or fiery sunrise on the mountain tops,
Falling in love with you was never in my plans.
I can't deny the beating of my heart
Anymore than I could deny oxygen to my lungs,
Akin to drowning in your eyes,
Drawing me deeper inside.
Alas, we were worlds apart,
You a god, I, a mere mortal,
I thought I was the predator and you a prey,
But it wasn't meant to be that way.
We met in the middle,
We parted at some crossroads,
Your life beckoned, so did mine,
We thought that was goodbye.
Yet here we are again,
Meeting at another crossroad,
Destiny decided,
Our fates are entwined.
