Deep into the night my mind left wandering, pondering.
My love but a thing for those to keep squandering.
My eyes caught in a void black lake glimmering, shimmering.
The affectionate fire in my heart slowly simmering.
The shroud of insanity grasping ever knowing, growing.
And I lose myself in the tender stream ever flowing.
The darkness inside keeping me awake nearing, fearing.
The thin dark figures are slowly appearing.
Hold on to those moments however regretting, upsetting.
Yet see them washed away in the river forever forgetting.
Succumb to the darkness quit relenting, resenting.
Just give in to stop all the tormenting.
Just let go...it's not as hard as may seem.
Lay your head back...wade into the quiet of the stream.
