Dakr

The dark is the only place I feel safe and yet in danger.
I'm afraid because I can't see
But at the same time
I feel safe because my eyes aren't bleeding at the sight of my fears
It hides them
It hides me
I can't see them coming if they touch me
But maybe they're just as blind as
Eye. My eyes hurt.
And now I can't even tell if they're open.
Ervey day my voisin gtes wrose.
 Am I in the dakr???

In The Dark

.

Closed against all things feared

my eyes see better in the darkness

hidden among shadows, my viewscape

takes in all edifices and movements

undetected.

.

My lids are brown shutters, my lashes black

curtains that close on all things gray.

Honor lives behind closed concepts to fade

as the coffin cover descends and locks.

At sunset love will blossom.
