Show me a place, secluded, away
Somewhere, no one else can find me
A place where shadows come to play
And break the ties that now bind me
Dear night, fall fast, in winter months
Tis when I can be myself, and breathe
In the cold, where sighs can be seen
Crystals form, on my skin, unsheathed
And as they cling to me, oh, how I try
To escape the light, however stark
But I cannot face the glare, so blinding
Please, let me find, a place, in the dark
Afterwards January Prompts – A place in the dark – Day 16/31
