Countdown to normalcy II

Countdown to normalcy II

My hometown is after dark,

When the mood is silent and air rife.

When voices are distant,-

And sights calm.

When the lights fade,

To cry the hurt within out;

And the heart learns to speak in tongues,-

Unheard.

My sanctuary is after dark,

When the cold walls warm,

To Cuddle oneself to sleep.

After dark is the mystery,

Of a lonely stare - one as blank- ,

Echoing one to the realism of earthy feels,

In our silent goodbyes,-

We always were…

TRUE.


Ps

The next one is happier😌
