night comes to a standstill
ingrained fears rise
to surpass moonlight
and darken
not so silent skies
haunted spirits
await a chance
to cast away masks
challenge earthly pretence
of being alive
It’s Halloween -
the night knows
what’s real
or
who is naïve?
I like the idea of being alive as an earthly pretense..We always haughtily assume our way is the best, if not the only way, don’t we?
