IN THE DARK

I am reaching for the light to save me from this dark
Yet It seems unattainable even by dusk
May be i have lost my sight and become blind
By the unbreakable corded ties that bind
Tomorrow is intwined in yesterday
And Night in the break of day

A black dove perches on my window
Overlooking a dark sunset over the meadow
My skyline is ever a deep crimson
Melancholy engulfs my reason
Stars have fled the the night sky in hiding
Leaving a thick darkness so blinding

The dark clouds now weep mahogany rain
Chocking the life out of my grey prairie plain
The air is filled with the death song by a Raven
Never once has it ever sung of heaven

Bah, no need for that. We're all human beings here! Well, unless somebody is secretly a shape-shifting multiform, in which case we're all in terrible danger. XD

Quite descriptive and with vivid imagery, painting everything with its own tainted darkness, mahogany rain, loved that part. well written. Thanks for sharing.
