Hard rain crashs in this dark night
A moon as cold as ice reflects off the river
The undulating surface creating a myriad of forms
Through the low storm filled cloudless street

I follow the shadows to distances greater
I see the ghosts track me yonder
All is at peace in the dark of the night
I am lost now how i find myself i know not how

All is as i am in the long cold nights
All alone in thits own dark plight
Nowhere see the blue and greens
In these grey pre-light scenes

I remember it still as it was in my dawn
Before I was condemned to wander alone
Now it is all i remember till brief dawn
When i will hurt once again with noone to mourn

How the dread fills me of the bright thankless sun
How its power held over me in the sunrise
How i long to remember how i long to forget
In a twilight of misery my crimes and my lies
  


 Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd
