Benighted; illumination settles in on me
as twilight rest in the shade
Sable-colored, bleak and isolated
aloof as an unmarked grave
Callous is its hold
to the one’s that cry out in it’s fold
Beyond this theme of lonely isolation
a pitch of blissfulness flares
Poignant, consummating my inner-self
to take me elsewhere
Droplets of tears subside
forcing the nocturnal darkness aside
