Midnight - Age 14

The midnight canvas with it’s beautiful truth paints us a masterpiece and openly I talk to you The silent night protects us and hides our insecure fears, both of each other and nothing In the line of tomorrow becoming today and today yesterday the sense of clarity becomes confused But at midnight it seems to breath, the skeleton of me starts to take shape A calmness filled with an anxious appreciation of fate, to sweet to feel without fear of permanent escape And I ask in the sense of an invisible companion, When does it click or all fall apart? Why don’t you answer in my enlightened dark? And how do I believe, hold faith and still fail to find my voice Then the clock moves, everything’s shifted to the edge I know it’s approaching, the time the darkened shield’s gone I hold on as long as I can without it being said until through nonverbal communication our openness halts and we drift away to an understanding saddened state Our midnight’s gone and to speak would only make it break So we sleep dreams of the next midnight fate
