They Are Night

Out in dark they are night
Born through circumstantial tendencies 
With invisibility beneath the dazzling city lights
Callous prizes in social event settings
Drowning identities among one’s own societies 
 Subjugating them to less and less
Characters, out or under our control?
But, when days shall end will we confess?
That their lives we really do not want to know
