Nyctophilia
Another night hits the busy land
Pushing away the long dawn
Waiting patiently to fall asleep
While the restless body lying freely on the cold floor
Eyes are wide awake in a lightless room
Four blade fan spinning around ahead me
And so my head
Looking at the up
The dark air becomes a sketch book
The energyless finger turns into a painting brush
Begin to draw your miserable eyes
And down to your little lips
Wish you will appear
From the thin air
Deep quietness running withing the enclosed walls
Each beats of heart steal away the quietness
Leaving the unidentified traces of you behind
The darkness no more a horror view
But scattered pieces of you
Now, the eyelids closing slowly
Only your picture remains in my memory.
