When darkness descends...
When darkness descends and i am all alone lost in my thoughts,
The world becomes a more volatile place than ever known,
Do i even know if i belong in this strangness of existence,
Or am i that alien trying to blend with the rest of the earthlings,
The laughter and the tears i share with everyone all day,
Seem to vanish and meander away, leaving me forlorn and in dismay,
As if they are telling me that everything is transient and changing,
These thoughts keep me awake many a nights these days,
When I am trying my hardest to drift into a sweet slumber,
And rest my weary little soul with a peaceful lullaby,
Oh how i wish to find that light at the end of the dark night before darkness engulfs me in its grip forever...
