Stars shining, the dark night sky,
Tears sliding, on the pale skin dry,
Heart beating, hoping for respite,
Walking down the moonlit night.
Streams of silver, glimmering dawn,
A sight of allurance, of joy and beyond,
“Everything was perfect, everything was right,”
Walking down the moonlit night.
Restrain of abjection, grasp of discord,
Inner persistence, shallow like a ford,
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,
Walking down the moonlit night.
Rustling of wind, the dark night sky,
Sharp searing pain, blood stains dry,
Heart ceasing, finally in respite,
Walking down the moonless night.
Darkness and gloom, never-ending sleep.
Brightness and joy, everlasting peace.
