Analysis of Ephemeral Embrace
In twilight's hush, where shadows creep and hide,
Our souls entwined, a forbidden tide.
Beneath the moon, a secret rendezvous,
A stolen kiss, a love taboo.
Your eyes, like stars, ignite the night,
A beacon guiding me through darkest plight.
Your touch, a flame that warms my core,
A solace sought, forevermore.
Yet, fate decrees a cruel decree,
Our love, a phantom, wild and free.
A fleeting moment, a stolen art,
A love condemned, torn apart.
We dance on edges, where danger lurks,
Our hearts entwined, amidst the murk.
A passion fierce, a love divine,
Ephemeral embrace, forever mine.
Though time may pass, and distance grow,
Our love, a flame, will always glow.
A memory etched, a cherished sight,
Our love, a star, shining bright.
