| 16. INVISIBLE NIGHT |
| I call you once. I call you twice. You dimmed the fire in my eyes. I need you more than you need me. Without your hand I cannot see. I work day in. I work day out. And all I see are clouds of doubt. The scars I graze are drops of pain and what I taste are tears of rain. And I don't really care at all if I fly or if I fall. You don't seem to notice. I'm trapped in standstill winds. And I don't really share at all. My thoughts are nothing tall. You don't seem to grimace when the fairytale ends. I smiled once. I smiled twice. You wiped the dryness from my eyes. I need the thoughts to grip my shame, so I look forward to the pain. I walk in. I walk out. It doesn't matter. I'm without the emptiness you brought me. I'm trapped again in my own pleas. |
