Leave Me Alone

O, dark muse of the night,
seduce me with sultry dreams 
for I am still at the edge of desires. 

O, longing heart should I succumb dream 
As night is so dark and I am nothing 
or fold the night and tuck it away? 

Life is between love and war and
My struggle to survive is everything,
yet I am nothing without something.

O, devils just leave me alone tonight
I want to be with myself and try
without your support or guidance.

The lights of dawn please snatch 
all my anxiety and clear the clouds of doubt
let me make a new beginning with a new leaf of life
