Thoughts in the Dark

the night

my goddess is the dark of night

she rules in blood

the fear her knight

in light it seems I’ve fled her spell

but in the dark she knows me well

her touch is steps behind the corner

her eyes are whispers in the trees

her creaking hands they pull me closer

her beauty pushes me to my knees

at day she seems a dreadful blur

but in the night I long for her

my thoughts eat glass

sing the song

of hungry thoughts

their eyes will long

for teeth of glass

their bite is splinters

in my head

they crack and grate

till all is red

my thoughts they fear the truth of light

as their allure lays in the night

at day I dream they left my soul

but when we dance they eat me whole
