Dark Spaces
Let the dark consume me as I am
Beyond that of time I shall never need
Take me to where space I can bend
To a place I need never beg and plead
Perhaps I can begin again... hidden
An alternative life only I have access to
From a now life to ever constantly beckons
Same difference...yet never once I knew
As of night... the day do not bring content
Simply a being where humans don’t blend
Everyone only wants to be heard
Simply no one listens, no one has the word
Things that can never be questioned becomes accepted
How life can only be constantly unsuited
Have you not the need to change to adapt to time?
Do you not feel constantly left behind?
The balance between hot and cold
Its between... we stubbornly ignore the edge and flow
Hour after hour, the day falling into night
A will without power, simply walking to never take flight
When you speak, do you hear your voice?
When you think, do you make a choice?
Would you rather, either or?
Rather to be neither nor
Where the dark shall consume me as I am
In a place I need never beg and plead
A place where space I can see bend
Where of time shall forever be without need
