from now
let daylight
blossom
darkness
is but
a happy dream
in the eyes
of the mistrustful
hiders tremble
fiercest
every moment
at dawn's arrival
fearful
that their ugly secrets
will be exposed
the secrets themselves
saturate me
with
their vague scent
still
I refuse to remain
amongst the scent of
secrets
as I am
and shall always
endeavor to be
truth's own
fondest
lost sister...........
