Darkness

A blinking star shines its light through the window

As cold tears fall from blood-shot eyes

The hands of time caress the clock

As time slowly walks by.

The darkness has set upon the lands

Searching for any sign of life

Death leaps for joy as the night falls

Cupid has settled his wings

The moon dances, the star flashes

Sleep falls upon the earth

As the whole land is coveted by darkness.

The winds speak their words

Lightly as the breeze taps the windows

The trees whisper secrets

Of the rivers that rush like falling rain

The sun hides behind the mountains

Like a sinful mourner behind closed curtains

Darkness settles down at last

And the earth is ready for its forever sleep.
