Darkness So Right
i wrap myself in the darkness of night,
i let the shadows fall gently on my face,
it feels somehow right tonight,
as i feel the chill of the evening embrace me.
it is hard just being,
everything always claims a reason to exist,
yet love stings the moment it springs alive,
many are the mistakes made 'cause of that.
and when you have a fall,
it takes a different kind of me to pick you up,
exactly like when you are swinging high,
another me is there to take you skywards.
so the darkness is a friend now,
with welcoming touch and concerned tone,
a moment's worth of respite from the glare of uncertainty,
what a twist this time around.
nothing is as it seems,
or so they say again and again,
yet the touch of darkness is just like a dance,
and sometimes dancing alone in the dark feels just right.
