In the dark I see
Nothing but the image
Of you and me,
Or your face
And your beautiful gestures
Like an oasis
In the dessert;
Like a night sky
Full of stars
Like a cold breeze
In July. Like a
Phone call in a
Lonely afternoon
But then you
Are gone too soon.
In the dark I stay
Hidden from you
And the those
Lovely lips, and
Those toxic eyes
Will have me believing
All your lies.
I would rather shut
Myself out forever.
Keep silent, keep numb
I'm sure you are
Just around.
Waiting to pounce, to prey
No, I'd rather
Here in the dark stay.
_anyang28 July
