A Shadow In The Dark

Sublimely submerged in a solitary suspense,
Hidden within the surface of flowing effervescence.
A shadow, floats fluidly, on inky black oceans,
Dissolving into the dark waters, undiluted in essence.
Originally emerging from a burning luminescence,
Whorls of radiance in every drop of existence
Splendid, like a supernova of blinding brilliance!

Slipping swiftly through the sand dunes of sense
Untethered, unbridled, uninhibited and intense!
Spanning infinities, as Time transcends distance,
Plunging into a moment, in the blink of an instance.
Experiencing a Universe with every broken frame of reference,
New Dimensions shattering each new thought's circumference.
Dawn dispersing darker in every dimensional deliverance
Entwining entirely into the elemental evening of exuberance.
Dusk inviting night, night invading space, Space inverting substance.

Inverting light to reveal dark, inverting opacities to reveal transparence,
Negating the primal polarities to reveal their common concurrence.

Twilight twisting together the two threads of temporal turbulence,
Holding up each to the other as a mirror for their countenance
Equal in emotion, equal in expression, equal in experience.

Defining light, is the shadow, by confining its own presence,
Ephemeral to the perception but eternal by its permanence.
Permeating in shadow's every silhouette, light bestows its sustenance,
Tracing the slivers of each shining silhouette as trajectories of significance.
Half each, of one absolute, yet whole alone in individual appearance,
Shadow piercing light, light devouring shadow... Similarity manifest in difference!

Obscured and observed, outlined and obfuscated, as simultaneous occurrence,
Fleetingly fading, fleetingly forming, from fluidly flowing fabrics of fragrance.

Descending deep into dense thought, dispersing the divergence,
Ascending across expanses imagined, assimilating the ambivalence.
Returning still restless as a shadow to Solitude, realising the relevance,
Knowing the indivisibility of light from dark, their invisible equivalence.
Not knowing still, the unity of two as a singularity of consequence,
Enthusing to espouse the Equivalence that is embodied elegance.
Suspending into an ocean of dreams, discovering buoyance,
So staying, sublimely submerged in a solitary suspense...
