i wait out the dark; the dark waits for me

"I wait out the dark
the dark waits for me
a transition slowing us down
we fade out at different speeds
It’s not a safe place, not for me

/

If it’s different
please show me how
an irregular heartbeat
an irregular sound

/

a melody that only I can hear
winding up 
inside my ear

/

I wait out the dark
the dark waits for me
a transition that never peaks
we fade out at different speeds
it’s not a safe place, not for me

/

If it’s different
please tell me how
high frequency empty
high frequency loud

/

a scratch that only I can feel
digging deeper
inside my ear
