All Alone I Stand

All Alone I Stand Dark, dreadful, Deep and Deceptive is the night, In the wilderness I stand With a fear of those Inhabiting the wild. Dark and gloomy is the sky and path ahead, Destroying hopes is the darkness, And, deceiving both mind and heart! Is the sense of direction way night. The shivering of leaves, The cold wind blowing along my Cheeks, Both bringing the fears of night, Creepy shadows, Puddles shallow, Path narrow, Yet I try to seek some light, In the wilderness I strive. Complete silence, not a soul around, Not a sound of any creature And no path laid by a human, Amongst the trees I stand Lost from my kind, I know now for sure, All my friends, foes and acquaintances close, Just left me behind alone. My only companion in this night Is the moon and its light, I am alert I am ready Waiting to face any of nature’s difficult testimony…! All alone I stand, Myself with courage and waiting for Down to triumph the Deceptive dark. By Manthra © August 10th, 2015
