I lurk in the shadows
That block out the sun
Long for the hours
When daylight is done
Dwell in the darkness
Tis where I’m content
Hidden, unnoticed
Is how my life’s spent
I am one with the creatures
Who stir in the night
Awaiting the sunset
To silence the light

In the silence of the night
I could hear her calling
Whispers, through the glass
In the silence of the night
I could feel her presence
As by me, she did pass
In the silence of the night
Wisps of hair, on my face
Danced, like a beautiful ballet
In the silence of the night
She had drawn me outside
And I let her take me away

Ginger hair, dressed in black
Darkness, drawn to light
She stands in silence, gazing
At the rays, that grace the night
Chancing they are moonbeams
She ventures, closer still
The night air, warm as summer
Yet, she could feel its chill
She waits, so impatiently
For a sign, to tell her why
The sunlight replaces darkness
She fears, the moon has lost the sky

Cast me a spell, that sets, like a fire
Flames in the darkness, my truest desire
Words that shadow, as the night closes in
Allow me to follow, when the spirits begin
Their incantations, to darken the light
The wakening of Luna, full and bright
Cast me a spell, my one true desire
The moon, my soul, to wickedly conspire

Sue has graced us with another fabulous photo! The subject this week is “Dark“.
Twilight begins, as clouds fill with the last light of day, shining through darkening skies. Crepuscular rays gleam, casting shadows on the colorless mountains below. I blink, hoping to find the colors I remembered just moments ago, only to find gray. It’s that gray that dims everything it touches. But I look beyond the dull and dreary, and my soul sighs, contented. I have found that glimmer of light, shining down on me, no longer kept hidden in the dark.
