IN THE TWILIGHT//Tam Lin//We sat together in the parlor. The sunset fell into her tea. And if I saw her wedding ring, it didnt mean a thing. I could have sworn shed lived a hundred years with me. Dont judge me, friends, for what Im going to tell you. Its easier than youd think to be confused when the evening shadows blurred I felt so close to her, in the twilight, when your mind plays tricks on you ... As in a dream, I followed her up the staircase to the room where her husband lay in bed. And the two of us we crept up beside him where he slept and we held a pillow down over his head. There was stillness in the dark air all around me. Then I turned and saw she had disappeared from view. So I lay down next to him as my eyes began to swim, in the twilight, when your mind plays tricks on you ... I wish to God Id never met her. But somehow I just cant seem to quit her. Cause I know if I run shell the world what Ive done. So for three long years Ive stuck around and I bought a little place just outside of town where I stay inside all day till the sun goes down ... In the evenings, sometimes I go out walking where the roadside bends up towards her place. And often times I see her walking next to me with the last rays of daylight on her face. And we go that way a mile together in silence, as natural as any couple you ever knew. And I think, maybe it turned out well, but it gets so hard to tell, in the twilight, when your mind plays tricks on you.
