Quiet Darkness
Quiet Darkness
Quiet darkness envelop me
winged intruder, lights dissolution
soar beyond day’s raucous din
Leave me in somber solitude
seek solace in myself, soul intact
beyond lacerating tongues
Reviling others call “nevermore, nevermore”
unwashed congregation, nor unholy pact
pull me from a life forsworn.
Stephen (Stoic)
