Do Not Expose to Direct Sunlight

No bolt of lightning clove the sky.
No clap of thunder deafened. I was
Not knocked down. I was, instead,
Fatigued abruptly by a realization:
What is sure at night dissolves to
Fantasy by day. A love need
Not engender love, and mine,
However long it lasts, won't find
Its twin in her.
