Analysis of Indescribable

Alvin 1998 (Nakuru)



Oh starry night,
vision of dreams
so distant within
the soot sky,
like ashes of
combusted day,
as your embodiment.
I stand
on a bridge
in awe of your beauty
which I dare not
belittle with words
anymore...
finding that silence,
like the darkness
that encompasses you so,
paints you perfectly...
