Imagine Us

Imagine,

The two of us

Sitting by the twilight

The crackle of timber

Flares like fireflies

That explode in mid-air

A shower of ice and fire

Melting into the darkness

Listen, to the river

That breaks gently

On the muted rocks

You can hear the sound

Of a thousand different stories

Voices, memories and verse

From worlds far away,

All captured in the waters

That kiss our feet

Imagine, in the distance

The flickering city lights

That dance like the stars

Their beauty, inexpensive

A reflection

Of the speckled sky

Into the distance, they become

One with the black of the sky,

A city, that never knew

It couldn’t fly

Because no one told her why

Imagine us, with all the secrets

Of a world, too starlit to cry

Literally Literary
