meshing shadows
creeping, it grows
a bit too quickly, and he knows
all these stones and every moan
feel it burning in each bone
and when he’s walking home alone
he finds a shadow for his own
to lose control, is to lose sight of goal,
to release what you hold on the day.
And to let go of light,
you’ll find shadows in each night,
and the shadows, they do like to play.
no advance, as he grasps his chest
some softly stretching
meshing shadow
salivating for this flesh
his eyes, surprised
wide and bulging in his fear
as the shadows drew in closer
and finally sidled near
caressing his existence
it drew closer to his ear
and slithered out a promise
sounding hauntingly sincere
'if you call out to darkness
just know that we’ll hear.
with a gentle kiss of forgetfulness
and the memories all will clear
I’ll take you far away,
and yet I’ll always keep you near
just remember to never
lose sight of the light
for I’m waiting for you, my dear.'
