Dusk

Dusk often touches a fading light and the sadness of declining hope — a dimming over your pursuits and prospects. The dream may ask where you feel something drawing to a close before its time, what unrequited longing is settling over you like evening, and how to hold the melancholy of a darkening hour without losing yourself in it.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say
