True Night

True Night
by dan ankers

Darkness without boundaries
True night has finally found me
No longer sleeping soundly
True death, there's nothing left

My world is made of shadows
No longer feeling sad though
In mist formed out of whispers
And ghostly apparitions

With my awareness slipping
And the old me sloughing
Just slipping off my bones
And falling to the floor

I dawn into a new day
Of onyx colored decay
And masters who are tailored
And suited to this light

I feel their waves engage me
The tingles of their skin is now the suit I wear
My smile is always present
Electrified despair

By the time of human herd
I am just another bird
Flocking singly through the throng
Unbeknownst to all

My cheerless disposition
My dark, raging condition
My heartless inhibition
My total darkness fall
