Morning
Halcyon sun
Glorious and radiant
Promising.
The future looks brighter than the sun today
It's blinding.
Step out and burn
Daylight firefight
Shot up
Relentless.
Shoot up
Apprentice
Right hand man
Left arm vein
Swirling
Coursing
Stinging
Burning.
Curtains drawn to hide the truth
Ruthless
The spotlight reveals you
Illuminating the shadiest corners of the soul
The sole reason
Hiding in the daylight
Open the door only to travel by night
No one in sight
Lurking
Slinking
Sinking hopes and crushed dreams
Prosper in the dark
Cold and dead arms hang
Lifelessly.
Long strides
Careful steps
The nighttime attacks like a thief who just pulled you into a dark alley to rob you
Not just of your money, honey.
Out of nowhere and unwelcome
Clammy hands in the eyes of defeat
Hard ground underneath
Thoughts
Creeping
Weeping
Mourning
