Midnight Thoughts

Wandering through your mind like a crow in a wheat field

Not a single worry of what thoughts come up in that empty void

Trudging through the dark abyss, that is your perception of reality

The incandescent light emitting from the moon remains the only luminescence in the thing we call life

Those dark times coming and going like the waves of the ocean crashing against the shore and pulling back

Everything within your line of vision seems to be the reflection of that deep, aching feeling in your soul

Trees rustling their leaves wake you up to what is really there

Your head burns like the black asphalt on the roads on a hot summer day

Deathly stares from everyone around you, yet no one is there

The thought that maybe there really is a light somewhere out there

Maybe that light is you, returning to me from the depths of guilt and remorse

This may be the end, but the thoughts continue racing…never-ending
