Won't you watch the sky purple and bruise with me?

The moon's yellow tonight, and so's the star - the one that looks like Jupiter.

The clouds are smoke, tinged red at the edges like blood blooming in the lake.

The towers blink in the distance - do they ever stop? - to the beat of my heart.

The breeze whispers a ballet between the tree branches, creating a dance of breath.

Won't you lean into my arm resting on your waist?

My fingertips along your jaw?

Your eyelashes flutter.

Dawn breaks.
