Night Is Long

In one blink

Cloud covers the moon

While night is creeping

Cautiously as thirsty mosquito

I sit on the edge of my bed

And mouth my prayer aloud

Sun is forgotten

Like blur moments of youth

Or old memories of my exes

Them I took only for granted

When they could even sleep in couch

I close my damp eyes for a second

My candles gently snuff out one at time

Night is long

So long as depthless road

Or that deathless awkward agony

You have to live with anyways

I stand up on my single foot

A quick ache put me back down

I try to stand up again

Trying hard to stand on my bare feet

Coldness of the ground on my flesh burning

Warm breeze in my ear hissing

I look out through my open window

If there is any obvious gesture of tomorrow

I step out of my haven

Stars twinkling high up in heaven

Nightingale chanting as Lucifer

Soulful angelic song of joy-fest
