The Day Must Die

Darkness is throwing her cold mantle Over the frightened sky, Eating up the last rays of a light gentle; Night has come; the day must die! They're full of flaws and so judgmental; But I'll forgive them, I swear; I will try. Darkness is throwing her cold mantle Over the frightened sky, Eating up the last rays of a light gentle; Night has come; the day must die! “It's all in your head! This illness is mental!” “It’s like the freezing embrace of a passer-by!” Above the heads is erected, the unknown metal; The scene cannot be perceived by the naked eye. Darkness is throwing her cold mantle Over the frightened sky, Eating up the last rays of a light gentle; Night has come… and the day must die! Rochdi Bouille November 22, 2016
