Silently Wait

The raindrops creates a suspenseful beat
As the black moonlight hovers over me
The fear of death, the fear of change
As I silently wait for the sun to set

I crouch down into the comforting grass
Peering from the corner of alert eyes
Startled at the changing tide
As I silently wait for the sun to set

The mist slowly evaporates
As time glistens from the last fallen’ drop
My glued hands will not depart
As I silently wait for the sun to set

Fear begins to erode my heart
The black veil of yesterday’s here
The cold breeze streams through my hair
As I silently wait for the sun to set
