Night Fright � Day Light |
 |
|
Fears from the past
that, in the day,
are by the
light
held at bay
are freed to roam
through
shadowy gloom
when revealing light
has left the room.
The mind is not
distracted then
by the affairs
of mortal men.
Memories we wish
had never been
born
people the night
until the morn.
Then
welcome rays
from the rising sun
chase them back to
where they'd begun:
back to their caves
of
remembered pain,
to lurk there in shadow
till night
falls again. |
