tick tock
Oct 13, 2023
the night shields
our secrets
our lies
our misery
how burdened
she must feel
how eagerly
she must wait
for daybreak
and rest awhile
not that
the day has it any better
he must deal with
the curses that follow
as all is revealed
the time is nearing
when both will join forces
and give it all back
like nature inevitably does
once it has enough
of our looking away
of our pretence
tick tock…
