Black Night

Entangled are this night’s threads
So unnerving are these dreads
Darkness envelops this night
Tearing me to shreds 

Caught in these threads I am
Now I view life, just as a sham
Left alone in this dark cave
Through eternal darkness I swam

Left with no twinkling light
My  life can’t take that flight
Tired ,I want to gather my strength
Now, is the time to change my plight

When it is darkest of dark, they say
It’s time for dawn ,to welcome day
Here I am with open arms
Welcoming  that eternal ray
