I Yearn for a Longer Night
Just when I yearn for a longer night
The day breaks into my simulated land
The sun steps in, the grayness goes out of sight
Dreams are blown out by a cruel hand!
If I had my say, I would have lived with the dark
Without the oppressive overbearing light
That on my existence burns a telltale mark
Displaying me around, mocking my plight!
I yearn for a longer night stopping all comebacks
Where cobwebs are woven with fairytale links
With no dogma, no isms to hide the cracks
The soul is intent on drifting and blissfully sinks!
