The Glow

Bright lights surrounding the stars that shimmer in the empty skies. Distorted sounds from the distant amplified by the hollow corridors. Shadow figures hover along the streets accompanied by a trail of red. The leaves await the wind to compose a harmonious tone to sooth the heat. Dripping water from the sink slowly stirs the thoughts into a murky state. A glimpse at the reflection from the disc that resembles an unusual aurora. It takes form of a familiar shape that absence helped grew fonder. She moves so gracefully over the monotonous walls into a forlorn soul. As the prances continues, the heart opens to welcome the warmth that she brings. But the pigment of her glow slowly fades as the she grows tired from dancing. The audience weeps as it comes to the finale and the room is once more filled with darkness. Curtains lowered and the stage is filled with silence, hopelessly yearning for her return someday.
