Dawn and Dusk (Original Poem)

A stream of silvery light
Trails in the gloomy night.
I fought for truth, fought for right,
But struggle has sapped all my might.
Morning star burning in the sky like coal,
Burrow through the heavens like a mole
My celestial journey has just begun.
Until I'm consumed by the sun...
Burned by heat, doused in flame
Apollo's rays sting my brain.
I long for rocky mountains,
Snowcapped peaks, bubbling fountains.
I bask in the light of the virgin moon.
Her glow fades in the dark tomb.
Specters of night haunt my soul,
Apparitionsof silver and gold
My dreaming mind is lost in love.
Then sleep came over me like a drug.
