Spoilers: Closure and Sein und Zeit
Author's Note: This poem means something totally un-related to The X-Files, but when I thought about it after I wrote it, I figured it would work great for X-Files because it kinda describes the children from Closure and Sein und Zeit. Well, either way, I hope you enjoy it!
Disclaimer: Yeah, since I'm using it as X-Files here, I', gonna throw this in lol…..They aren't mine!

Midnight Melody
***
The darkness falls upon a wood,
Enchanted with the coming night.
And as the twilight slowly grows,
Appears a garden of unearthly light.
***
They climb from tombs of roses,
Buried deep beneath the frigid ground.
When the moonlight shines upon them,
The children sing and dance around.
***
Forgotten by the mortal world,
Remembered in the lonely stars,
Forbidden the sun's warm embrace,
Just souls left with unhealed scars.
***
An elegy drifts on the summer breeze,
Known as midnight's mournful melody.
Lives cut short long before their time,
Deaths surrounded in shadow and mystery.
***
They have come unto the starlight,
And, oh! how jubilant their play!
Dancing to the midnight melody,
Till they flee with the break of day.
