Just Me

Whether the night be yet a darker shade Perhaps I might just embrace all there be And falling nights... do they yet await? Is there to be once a single night to be me? Just me... if the world would have me tonight For the world who hasn't seen me as I am So many versions of me have all but died The many beginnings afar too nearing ends As do evenings only draw to its promising close The night shall feed upon all who wanders within For he who dreams never stood and rose For the midnight walker must and only begin again Do you know who I am, do you know my name? Tonight when I'm yours and you never mine Can I expect another night to ever once more be the same? Yet only a once I am to know I'm bound to find Perhaps I am the darker shade Whether the night shall once more be Just me... for the night to once more await This one single night to know what is like to be me
