Light moves and night steals.
In the night,
Time stands still;
It wobbles and caresses a broken seal.
The moon falls and gives a goal -
To live your life is your only trial.
In the night, time is a companion:
It whistles and sends a knoll.
The darkness is a lonely cavern -
It swirls in spirals intriguing a lonely wayward orphan.
It pummels the ground.
In the night, it engulfs the land in an endless tavern.
In the night, you are trapped.
Your dream is your alibi;
There is no escape unless you find yourself in the light -
Unless the light is tapped.
Sail a ship;
In the night, there are crinkles in the waves -
They **** and sink,
They wear their blade on their hip.
There are hallows;
There are taunts and burdens to carry;
In the night, there are monsters -
There are shallows.
Even though the darkness is tight,
And the fear is illuminated -
The world is at peace;
In the night.
An older poem of mine. :)
