Whispering darkness, silence your chattering teeth and let the mind be quiet. We’ve spent a lifetime waiting for the calm and the rise but it never comes. Our hopes and dreams have passed into memory, and we’ve nothing left to grasp but the clothes on our backs. It was chance, but mostly good timing, that brought our hearts together. I watched our minds gathering on the brink of the storm. Together we stood like pillars of stone and bent the world around us. Seize the temptation to stand so tall and pride will crack the stiffest foundations and shake them loose.
Frightening night, take me away from here. Carry my spirit in your reckless wake and let me feel as one again. Whispering darkness, take flight and return to your hollowed solace.
And I just want to sleep.
