Darkness engulfed the alleyways, as the twilight seemed to dwindle.
The warmth of life seeped back into the cracks as the darkness enveloped.
A chilling cold shooting right through the bone proclaimed the changes' start.
The fiends of emptiness and pirates of the flesh begin their evening prowls,
As packs of creatures sang their lunar jowls.
Reflected in the eyes so crimson red,
Suffering, torment and dread.
Hidden in the shadows they unsheathe their deceptions,
From their past of painful recollection.
Creeping out of their minuscule crevices they start to gather within the depths of the nocturnal hours,
Secretively enraptured by the swirling mists of smoke, the chanting gets ever so louder.
Unseen by the naked eye is this world of mystical wonders,
For darkness is reflected in our hearts so undeniable.
All traces of light have been erased as well as the day,
As empty souls of dappled gray provide a trafficked dismay.
Twisted dreams intertwine with the deep dark ambitions as depicted by the subconscious mind,
In this audacious state all saneness is so hard to find.
Now lost in this dangerous dance,
With just words I was captured and entranced.
So confused from being pulled in different directions,
Only being able to see my shattered reflections.
Although I may confuse some not even myself fully I understand,
Why can't they comply to their own reprimands?
