The night comes,
Dragging its feet,
Lurking in the corners.
Come to me.
I can’t wait much longer.
Your time is limited.
Enter my domain.
The wind sighs.
The moon shows its face.
The birds flee.
The spirits rise.
Yes, move closer.
THE NIGHT COMES
night
DARE TO DREAM
DARE TO DREAM
I stare into the night.
I gaze at the unknown.
I dare to dream of flight
Before the time has flown.
When the night comes softly
On feet as light as air,
I can see more clearly
Of what I can dare.
Alone on this hilltop
With the freezing wind and cold,
I will race without stop
To places, I can be bold.
Darkness hides secrets and lies
Beneath its cloak of despair.
Secrets that severs all ties
Until the sun rises clear.
THE HUNT
THE HUNT
It moves slowly.
In the dead of night.
Walking on silent feet.
It draws closer.
I dash into a building.
An empty school.
It soon follows.
It brings with it silence.
I can feel its presence.
Creeping closer.
I enter a deserted hallway.
I turn.
Shut my eyes.
And stand strong.
Darkness descends.
I fall into the dark abyss.
CREATURE OF THE NIGHT
ex0skeletal Deactivated
by Oliver Liu
A creature of the night.
Who walks in the moonlight.
Searching for innocent ones.
Who will serve his purpose?
Don’t play his games.
Don’t be fooled.
By his beautiful shell.
For inside he’s empty.
Without a soul.
Without a heart.

SHINE IN THE NIGHT
The night grows heavy.
It grows dark.
We look to the moon.
To bask in its glow.
A halo of blue.
Falls to earth.
Blue against orange.
To shine into the night.
RED
The night holds
You too tight.
You belong to us now.
I say this with a bow.
You will follow us to hell
As we ring the nightly bell.
Our servant you will be.
You’ll never be set free.
HIS PLACE
The sun sets.
The animals prepare for the night.
The old elephant stands in his place.
He doesn’t need to move.
He has everything he needs.
He keeps a watchful eye
As he stands in his place.
