Transient

Tracy Windisch Mason

I dream
With butterfly wings
Exalting
While
Luring me in
With colour you scheme
Dazzling light
You shine
Within the dark beating
Trepidation you shake
Trembling you make
And all of the beauty
You so heartlessly take
Transient of the dark
Transient of this heart
I flutter endlessly
As you love,
Then tear me apart.
