The dark...
Empty?
Maybe
Maybe not
You can never tell what's up ahead.
Nothingness?
Just a feeling
An illusion
There's no such thing as nothing.
Shadows?
How they are cast
I'm not sure
No light
Should mean
No shadow,
But they're always there.
Peaceful?
Definitely
Night
Is the most surreal of times
Everything is quiet
The world sleeps.
Fear?
Only to a young child
Or an animal being hunted by its nocturnal predator.
So now every twelve hours
This is how we live
In a vast nothingness of
Empty shadows
In a peaceful fear
We await
The light...
