He sits alone in contemplation, far into the night Midnight's hour long since past, as ponders on his plight Shadows dance across the wall in rhythm to the glow Of embers of a fire near death, macabre shadowed show, In his hand blank manuscript, of thoughts as yet unwritten, Amid dark depths of melancholy, lay tales by sorrows bitten. Upon the night falls tales unspoken, as he seeks of ports quiescent, In somber stealth of midnight's waning, within his mind, pound screams incessant. |

it's about the shadows dancing on the wall, and how the light spills into the darkness and falls on every word. It is the time I feel most alone. Beautifully done, Tim~ |
