dusk arising

the great healer

 

 

She\'d found him in the dunes that night
staring at the waves, Daphne\'s locket in his hand.
Tears still wet on his face, she silently embraced him.
They had made crazy love that night and she\'d fallen
asleep easily, suddenly waking to find him gone.
There were no words she could say now.
Impossible to compete with the solace of the dunes,
oceans crashing tide and the noble domain of the stars.
But there was time, the great healer.
