Rawness of the night


The night shines brighter than the day Although the sky emmits no source of light The absence of something is almost as strong as the abundance of it Under the dim light of the moon, emotions are raw. Feelings are felt, for you are alone the time to understand what hands have been dealt All the short straws that have been drawn With all of this, Tears fall down your flush face You are so tired and fatigued, at being merely a pawn Simply a "thing" that lacks the importance of a lighthearted gesture to be shown So when in the dusk turns to dawn, the night shines brighter than it has ever been
