by lindisa-mathabela-1

What is an object in the light is a moving shadow in the night. Stand between them Shoot them in the head and dance with their demons. Tessellate and heavy eyes It's mourning And I'm still up. Open my eyes to the blinding light In an ocean of darkness, I sea. Time becomes length Thought becomes sight Vivid consciousness takes flight A troublesome delight. Slip in Slip out Dream in dream out Dayless nights Tiresome wake A moving shadow in the night Is but an object in the light.
