What Happened To The Night? Poem by Kondwani Simwaba

What Happened To The Night?



What happened to the night?
Twas a lonely night that witnessed the union of the stars; a gentle glow that turned into a sparkle, a blinding flash of light shone accross the sky.
Twas a cold night when the zephyr healed the scars; a gentle breeze held these stars in one place like a belt buckle, a tightened union to untie.
Twas a luminous night, the soflty bright light emitted from the stars' core denoted life; unfettered by their celestial disposition but enough to maintain the status quo.
Twas a virgin night, unadulterated by the norctunal vices; a calm night with only starlight glowing, scintillating through the pores of darkness.
Twas a night of enamour until dawn came and revealed the most clandestine secret; surreptitiously these stars were losing their grip, slowly losing their core and this time not even their radiant sparkle could conceal the cracks caused by time, because this time these stars were losing their glow...
