Love Poem: Unleashing more fears

Unleashing more fears

my love life is like a plot in a grand novel,
     where dawn stands tall,
yet dusk must kneel
   and grovel.

each chapter of it dims as twilight nears,
     unleashing darkness that feeds on
the carcass of
   waning years.

yet expectation remains high...
     waiting for another page
to turn and turn
   until old age.

meanwhile, the plot keeps thickening...
     bringing to life
more of the fears
   in a world full of strife.

yet love keeps its shine in the distance,
     like a mirage that gleams in space,
offering false satiation,
   only to fade into non-existence.

but the story will never end...
     until the Author of all things
chooses to write an epilogue
   of how much of his love we all depend.
