[ a nette onclaud collab ] As twilight moves through the glass of dawn I catch my shadow hiding among trees, like ripped gauze from a withering leaf, that slips into the brazen darkness weary from cracks of brittle tears, alone once more looking for souls who are not there ... and I weep for unfinished dreams upon a mute moon, while begging for fate’s new postscript to hurl the way, a different song this time. Unfinished vows left behind, on this night, I cast light from the sterilized room, matching shadows throughout the twilight something of dreams creeps below the pillow searching for peace and serenity numbers become numb I can't breathe, knowing I'm incomplete, trite tears longing to be together lyrics become darkness, the sun makes laughter once more leaving a plume of dreams above the sheets.
