The world wanes, and darkness comes
Enveloping what the sun laid bare.
Fragile creatures now sing their songs,
Weak things scurry under shafts of silver.
Light’s cruelties cower before a night anew
A face twisted by tension softens under sodium hue.
Racing thoughts indelible trauma a cacophony of pain
It all drowns in the midnight rain.
Impossible beauty fills the void,
Roads of glittering topaz,
And skies so vast they claim heaven and earth.
For those who will not see, a boon
Infinite realms, impossible truths, blissful nothingness
The freedom to choose, and let their mind commune.
But forever, this is not to be
As even the black abyss itself
is burned away in dawn’s great sea.
