In the middle of the night
Wishes come true just not mine,
Staring at the creamy ceiling, I dine,
To my victorious joy of the tiny hope,
I pray, smiling at the silhouette,
Who held a paper rose.

Light, feathering touches of the phantom,
Every last word are centered into my soul,
Whispers come dangerously alive,
In the middle of the lonely night.
It carries my secrets that I try to hide.

Planning an expedition to my world,
I close my eyes and let my ride,
Take me to a trial of picturesque words,
Imprinted into the corner of my mind.
I breathe the demolishing venture,
Fidgeting under the blanket of fear.
Devils befriended my stiff shoulders,
Invading my dreams and cackled louder.

Seeking a haven in people I loved,
Was the gravest mistake I’ve ever done,
Should have digested it by now,
It’s an ordeal that I projected million times,
I sleep, tucking in my hollow shadow.
