The Silence of Nights
#1
The night is silent
Nothing is said
A single smile comes to mind
One who seems to be itself
Warmth
And yet cool
Why is it I seem tormented?
Why can I not let you go?

A weakness shown
A weakness
Unbeknownst to me
You asked for nothing
You weighed no odds
You were so sure
As was I
By folly we fell
Stumbling as we ran through the fields

The night is silent
But for the dawn
And for you
Another dawn shall surely arise
One asks
Will it be so
That I am among the dawn as once was?
Or will I be restrained?
For some reason my mind no longer stays at peace
For some reason
My mind returns to the state of a time long past
When nothing made sense
And the world seemed against me
Has that time come again?

No chaos in the skies
No wind to play with
The pit that I've made
Why is it that I cannot leave it?
Despair clouds my mind
To the dismay of few
Am I left alone to fight the darkness?
Have I fallen?
And if so
How far?
For I now cannot make sense of things that were once as clear as the calm waters of your sea

Things may continue
And things may not
Either choice is seen as both a grace and a curse
For now the night is silent
To the dawn
To me
Shall it be silent evermore?
