Dancing Dark
A moving shadow slids through the night.
Whispering words of removment from light.
A movement of dance is about to begin.
One that no one could every quite understand.
A tiny voice releases a chant.
One that is lacking and still quite scant.
Moving in circles that they will never quite know.
Walking the road that will leave them alone.
Hearing the voices they feel in their hearts.
Letting them lure them further and further apart.
Away from the light they thought understood.
Away and into the dark of the woods.
Lost souls lead to the broken way of the world.
Windows shattered, souls forgotten, flags unfurled.
And among the desolent tears that hang.
Where seperate is not equal and equal isn't the same.
Nothing makes sense and everyone fears,
the passing of the days and coming of years.
The rich turn to the poor, the poor become rich.
Everything is quiet, a deadly glitch.
An empty sigh expells from her mind.
She's gone too far for anyone to find.
So the evening goes without a prayer.
There's no way anyone could take her there.
One last sigh as the shadows come.
She knows there's nowhere left to run.
And everything inside her screams 'forget'.
The trials are far, far from over yet.
And so with arms raised the dancer moves.
Knowing that it will be over soon.
And she can forget the song of the lark,
and hear only herself in the dancing dark.
