day four

Promts - nocturnal animal

no matter how many times
I tie and cover
I will never be able to
break ties with that monster
she's a beast
that feeds on misery
don't act like you know her
she hates that kind of witchery
she'll rip you out
for the littlest sympathy
stop fooling around and go back home
or else you'll be pitied by the readers of history
a nocturnal animal didn't you say?
so much for you to keep at bay
some of the poets would agree
the only time we're actually free
no one to judge no eyes to see
in the dark we get as quite as the sea
hiding ourselves in the daylight
turning nocturnal every night
We love darkness, we vow to the dark
we'll keep alive the writing spark.
