My Favourite Portrait of You

The synapse in which both of You and I meet. Though, no longer can I tell where I end and You begin. An enduring connection of which escape is dubious. Inevitability remains a common guest, A parasitic fiend that clenches control As You and I laze, nonchalant of the approaching villain That of whom strides quicker, grows stronger, and wills to linger. A darkened silhouette against our brush plain.   Finally: It conquers us, You and I, And as It reveals itself I see It's face - one of a cryptic familiarity. The Unknown presents It's dominance with an otherworldly grin. In that moment, I see what looms so maliciously. I see that after all, It was truly You, Rather than some unnameable Thing Or a being higher than I, My sunset plain was merely broken by You, And You alone.
