Darkness

 

Darkness

Slipping...

Sliding...

Slinking...

Coming...

Conquering...

Covering...

Daylight

Burning...

Blinding...

Blazing...

Dimming...

Dying...

Disappearing...

Darkness replacing day

Day is dying

Bleeding orange and pink and purple

Into the horizon

*Click*

Mental picture of the vibrant hues

Then wait

wait...

wait...

NOW!!!

It's gone

The too-bright blinding luminescence

Of daylight

Been replaced conquered

By the pale light of midnight

Silence surrounds like a blanket

Warming like a friend's embrace

Pale light of midnight kisses my cheeks and my face

And i am among friends

I am free

Chill wind keeps all others out

Out of my Eden

A world for just me

They reject me

i don't mind

i have my own friends

Darkness conquered the blinding brilliance

Silence hushed the crashing noise

Books spun silver web-paths to Imagi~nation

Chill heavy night air blew and pushed everyone inside

And Darkness lulled them to sleep

For me

i was never home in your world

So i created my own

The pale light of midnight shines

Thin and shimmery spiderwebs

Wrapping everything

And changing them

To what they are to me

This is my world

Beautiful magic dancing singing

No one can stop me

No depression

No eyes to watch me

No minds to judge me

So why be afraid

Why fear

Why hide

Why be anxious

I'm not

No panic-ing

shaking

gripping sides

scared

thoughts racing

and on and on and on...

Not here

Not here

Here i am safe

You'll never catch me

The pale light of midnight

Spins a web of Invisibility

And the Darkness blinds you

Like Daylight blinds me

And Silence chokes you

Like Speech chokes me

And Night~Air chills and freezes you

While without it i burn into dust

So here i am safe

Safe from you

i can be me

i can be that thing you call Normal

But what is Normal???

i suppose it's the opposite of me

it's the one i can't be

When people watch

Or are even just there

But i don't care

((Well, i do but you'll never know that))

And go out and hang with your Friends

Another word you use

Go ahead

Drink up

Laugh

Enjoy

I can do that too

Even if it is alone

Alone in the pale light of moonlight

i do what you do with your Friends

swing bottle

*slosh*

walk and swing

and swing and walk

and

upend the bottle

*gulp*

and walking

stumble

dizzy

fuzzy

bleary

spiderwebby midnight~light blurs

so does the spotlight~y i see

it's scanning the black road beside me

The spotlight blurs 

But i hear a deep purr

i look

the spotlights dim

the purring gets louder

but i see that it's coming

From a ways away

...ways away

...waaazuuuwaaay

There's fog in my head

Misty cool fog

a word comes through the fog

Truck

TrunkTruckTruck

it comes closer and i keep walking

it's still far away

i hear as it speeds up

the road is curvy

Bendy and twisting

But i'm too dizzy to follow

i go straight

Blinding spotlight closer now

stumble ~oops~

screech and black

and quiet and nothing

this Darkness is different

There's no midnight~light

No comfort

I'm cold

I'm freezing

I'm alone

and it's foggy here

Though i can't see it

i feel it

and i feel alone

and tired

Night~night

Author's Note

Random rambling at 1am. i was doing AP homework and took a break. Couldn't think of anything to write so just started writing and couldn't stop.
Note: yes, i know the punctuation and capitalizing sucks. ignore it. it's supposed to be like that.

Woah!
This is totally amazing for a rambling at 1am write!
A little different, and weird to read, but I like it....and some of it I found myself relating to.


"And the Darkness blinds you

Like Daylight blinds me

And Silence chokes you

Like Speech chokes me"

i felt, like theres a bit of myself in that. i can see in your view, i can feel in the same perspective.

and at some point in, i realized that this could become a song. not exactly knowing what type, but just, a song.

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

You should ramble every nite. In one word. EPIC!

This is a brilliant poem.
