When the Night Toasted Darkness

Created on: August 14, 2007 Last Updated: August 13, 2013 The night toasted darkness And the shadows set in Into the deep wilderness The moon shone again Behold, for the darkness has no truths So much deceiving me that I don't know what to do The anger comes upon me and I try to release it But instead in my queasy stomach, an ache in the pit Circles of memories and reminders flutter about my brain Coming in double time, pieces falling like rain I try to speak but I just slam the door Because the words cannot be spoken anymore Maybe it's the side of me people take for granted With a heart like an eggshell and a posture like granite One false move could send me off this planet Running from the nonsense and irony that runs so rampant dammit
