Night-Time
"In the light of day, we are ceaselessly, inadvertently trying to reflect versions of ourselves. And thus, night allures."
Quote by poet
Darkness has fallen
The shadows cover me
I can stop my reflections
Within these mild-minutes
Safe are my imperfections
Guarded from the darts they shoot.
Let me rest for tonight
Mend the pseudo-patches
Mere moments not hold their convictions
No intruders, commentators
No speech of deprecation;
I can dress their part
When the light falls again.
