Crimson

Like two ripened fruits, ready to be picked
Forcing you to focus, trying to engrave each of their cracks into the folds of your thought
Yet no matter how long, the time given is never enough
It is as though you've been wandering, in a desert of flame for decades
Till the fates lead you to a prospering oasis
So you sip from its water as much as you sip .. getting as drunk on its sweetness as you much as you get
Yet your insides continue yearning for more

Diana 2

She looked out of a mansion's window
In a land, long known for romance and beauty
Her dress, a mixture of her white light
And the perfect black of the night sky

She looked down, and saw her Endymion
Sitting, hiding amongst the mortals
She could see he had little care
for all those worldly distractions

And so she sent her thoughts, over the ether
Look up dear Endymion, Look towards the sky
For a moment, he was caught by the joyous burst
As her words materialized into his mind

And then he looked, and wowed he was
as all those humans around him vanished
the moment the light of her smile engulfed him
lost, between the moonlight and night sky that is her dress
