[A/N: Don't mind my rambling. I digress a lot, so I don't recommend a tour of my mind. :D]

Standing at the edge

Looking in

Peering, gazing

Dreaming about the water

Crystal clear, the water is

Truly pure, the pool is

Azure blue, the sky is

And the rainbow? It's gone.

Lying on the grass

Looking up

Peering, gazing

Dreaming about the sky

Midnight scatters, moon rising

Barely peeking, softly glowing

Wind rustles, trees sway

Humming lightly, whispering -

The stars, the stars

They hang in the sky, feeble and frail

Dropping one by one

Lights winking out hundreds by hundreds

The world dims, beyond midnight

Shrouded in black, cloaked in mystery

No light, no sounds

All alone

Dawn battles, fierce and brutal

Sending streams of sunlight chasing down paths of black

Bringing a thousand tastes back to Earth

Sauntering across the orange sky

And the darkness is gone.
