The Flashlight

The obstacles and dangers are rarely seen
Walking with no lamp in the cold dark night.
When the big moon hides behind the screen,
Flashlight fills the mood in transparent light.

Beyond the scary realm unseen noises reign, 
From the abandon overgrown world, 
My nature is clear when the flashlight flame
Bring something incomprehensible into my soul.

Weary nights cloaked in the static darkness
My breath being the only sound without sight,
Flashlight in the night being a guardian of bliss
Turning the dark environment into pure light.

Apocalyptic corridors use the night shadows
For the clandestine haunting complex.
But my flashlight is like the old battle arrows
Fly, through the air meet doppelganger reflect.

In the night, seeing flashes of neon light 
Our universe waiting for tomorrow to come 
flashlight blinding strobe move the frighten sight
to dawn, till all the goose bumps are done.
