Light kills the soul
We are not what we seem
Only in darkness we relax
Fences fall, personality drifts
I become myself amongst y’all
Tensions subside, smiles curl
My words tell truths your ears know
Edgy in the daylight, comfy now
Why we hide ourselves unknown?
Coyote traits to fool myself
Is rejection such an issue for me
You never know where my heart lies
I’ll assure every feeling to get my way
My safety is in the deep shadows
No sterile sunshine to gloss over
No empty promises of perfection
The night is for wonton ways
Silk escapes of what should be
I love the night for the freedom
I disdain the light for bleakness.
