Most nights
I'm at war
With my own thoughts

May the Darkness embrace me
*May the Light engulf me

Thus  says the LORD GOD concerning Edom,
We have heard a report from the LORD,
and a messenger has been sent among the nations;
"Rise up! Let us rise against it for battle!"

I will surely make you least among the nations;
you shall be utterly despised .

Your proud heart has  deceived you,
you that live in the clefts of the rock,
whose dwelling is in the heights.

You say in your heart ,
"Who will bring me down to the ground!"

Though you soar aloft like the eagle,
though your nest is set
among the stars
from there I will bring you down.
says the LORD.

Lady night offers her generosity
as the stars twinkle in syncopation for me.
Shadow-clad silhouettes...
Their gaits mysterious.
The night lights trail into the depths of my eyes.
Burning away the seconds, so effortless.

The quietness...
Willing forth dishevelled reflections...
Of unkempt emotions.
Allowing a barrage...
Of thoughts and notions that span
over night and day.

So that they could...
Be conveyed through paper and screen.
So that I could...
Share with you what I intimately mean.
The unforgiving onslaught of ideas and feelings
I bravely conjured...
But too afraid to say.
